Reverse grid races and points handed out for the fastest time in practice were among the ideas floated by Stefano Domenicali as the Formula 1 chief discussed potential future changes to the sport.
The sport has grown rapidly over the last few years, since it was bought by Liberty Media. Much of the credit is often attributed to the Netflix Drive to Survive series, which certainly attracted a wave of new fans by putting the sport's biggest personalities on display.
To keep those new interested spectators invested in the action itself, rather than just the off-track drama, changes to the way race weekends work have been proposed. The first of those, Sprint Qualifying, is already being used.
