Pierre Gasly has also come out and disagreed with Daniel Ricciardo's idea of getting rid of free practice on Saturday and having an extra race there in addition to the one on Sunday.
Sebastian Vettel already disagreed earlier, saying that an extra race would take away from the spectacle a race on Sunday brings, as the Grand Prix now is the absolute highlight of the weekend.
Ricciardo told SpeedWeek that in an ideal world, he could do without free practice as well. He did however realize that this would never happen in the Formula One, so he was just theoretically speaking.
“I’m not a big fan of a second race on the weekend because since I was born and follow Formula 1 it was always a one race event," Pierre Gasly added.
“This is the main event of the weekend and I’m waiting for this highlight.
"I do not think the race format needs to be changed because it’s pretty good as it is,” the Frenchman concluded.
