FP1 stands for 'Free Practice 1'. In a standard Formula 1 Grand Prix weekend, there are usually three free practice sessions where teams can test their cars, try different setups, and drivers get familiar with the track. The story highlights that the Dutch GP's sprint format means there's only one practice session, FP1, before competitive action begins.
