QUARTARARO WANTS MOTOGP TO MATCH F1’S SPRINT COUNT
26 Sept 2026·

Fabio Quartararo says MotoGP should stage as many sprint races as Formula 1. The proposal comes as stakeholders consider a new format for 2027, potentially giving every round two qualifying sessions while reducing practice time. Under the current format, riders use the same qualifying results to set their sprint and grand prix starting positions; the planned change would introduce dedicated sprint qualifying.
