SINGAPORE -- Formula One's director of motorsport, Ross Brawn, has responded to recent criticism levelled at F1's plans to experiment with the format of grand prix weekends in 2020.
The sport is evaluating ways of injecting more excitement and unpredictability into race weekends, and one of the recently proposed ideas is to implement Saturday qualifying races as opposed to the current three-session timed format.
The proposed idea would see drivers line up on the grid in reverse-championship order for a sprint race on Saturday, with the result of the race determining the grid for the grand prix on Sunday.
