What will it take for them to understand we don't want sprints?

For us to stop watching them and buying tickets to go see them at the circuit. As long sprint weekends have higher viewership(in terms of time spent watching formula 1), they have no reason to drop sprints no matter how much we bitch about it.

you'd need to give them a better way to make more money over a race weekend. They can't add more races, so the only option is to squeeze more money out of the weekends they already have on the calendar.
