F1 announced the six sprint race hosts for next season on Thursday, although many fans quickly highlighted their frustration on social media.
Only one change has been made from this season's sprint line-up for next year, with Spa-Francorchamps in Belgium replacing Austria's Red Bull Ring as a sprint race host.
Belgium joins China, Miami, Austin, Brazil and Qatar as a sprint host next year, which sees a 100 km race before qualifying on a grand prix Saturday.
When the sprint format is in use, a sprint qualifying runs after first practice on Friday. Only one practice session takes place during sprint weekends.
The sprint races have been met with a mixed response since being introduced in 2021. However, F1 has indicated their positivity for promoters, with a significant uptick in TV audiences and social media interaction.
