What do you think of MotoGP's potential new weekend format?

Saturdays are already a nightmare. If Liberty wants more entertaining rider content, stop overwhelming them with endless, needless tasks and expectations. Quality, not quantity, folks. These are high-level athletes first, celebrities eighth. They need focus and energy. Giving space for both will heighten the quality of their engagement with media in turn.

It might also make them more amenable to the new format, if they’re not drowning in every other little thing Liberty puts them through already.

Apparently we could also see a Q1/Q2/Q3 format like in F1. I see why they want to homogenise, but I don't think it will go down well

Just like the F1 , i think it’s a great idea. If someone has difficulties or crashes in sprint qualifying then they have another chance for the main GP. 👍😀🏁🏆

I think I’m with you, it gives everyone a chance to improve their position on the grid if the sprint quali goes wrong. The potential downside is it’s another session for riders to get injured in and destroy the bike

I think it's needlessly convoluted, and only furthers the narrative that Liberty Media are trying to 'F1-ise' MotoGP - realistically, the current format isn't ideal, but creates far fewer problems than this new proposed format...
