I'm not, I've had a very bad day, and I'm sorry it's come out at you like this. You did nothing wrong, other than have an objectively incorrect opinion (this is a joke).

I personally dislike the new sprint format. It's completely disconnected from the race on Sunday, and it separates the race from the race quali by a whole day and two events. It's like having an entirely different league doing their own quali and race in between the actual quali and race. They might as well replace the sprint with a rugby game and arbitrarily award points afterwards.

And I don't get why everyone hated the original sprint. Having it award points and count as qualifying for the Sunday race meant it mattered more to the drivers and lead to some good battles and passing, but it was short enough that as soon as the field spread out, it was over so it skips the boring part of an actual race where everyone manages tire wear and waits to pull the trigger to pit.
