F1 considering Sprint for rookie drivers at Abu Dhabi
Formula 1 could introduce a non-championship race for rookies as soon as this December, according to Red Bull Racing boss Christian Horner. The concept of a rookies-only race has been kicked around among F1 management and team principals for months, with Horner a principal proponent. The proposal is for a single-day event following the season-closing Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, the week after which is ordinarily reserved for young driver testing at the Yas Marina Circuit. With testing of current cars almost entirely banned, backers of the plan argue a one-day Sprint event would offer rookies a more representative seat time compared to hours of unstructured testing.
