FIA: Sprint race starts later in Belgium: start time now 5:05pm local time

Initially, the sprint race was scheduled to start at 16:30 local time, but the 35-minute delay in the sprint Shootout, means that we will start the short 15-lap race later today, also 35 minutes later. This is because the regulations stipulate that there must be a minimum of 4.5 hours between the two sessions.

It also gives the FIA a bit more time to fully complete the programme of the other racing classes, such as Formula 2.
