However, the new idea is that the reverse grid – perhaps applying only to the top 8 or 10 places – is reserved only for the new ‘sprint qualifying’ short races. For example, on the agenda is whether the statistic of pole position should go to the fastest driver on qualifying on Friday, and also whether more points can be earned on Saturday. It is believed that idea, and the reverse grid proposal, will be discussed ahead of the World Motor Sport Council meeting next month. The Saturday sprint, with a reversed grid order, would then count towards a separate world championship, as hinted at previously by F1 CEO Stefano Domenicali.
