The "Analysis" section of this article contains a single paragraph which begins thus: The first and the third movement are related to each other: both share the same tempo and both are in sonata form". The paragraph ends with a citation (the only citation in the entire section) which does not state or in any way imply that any of this piece is in sonata form. The contention that the outer movements are would thus appear to original research. I haven't examined the piece closely myself yet, but when I do I expect to find no sonata form. Why? Because Stravinsky himself said so. Stravinsky: "I used the term sonata in its original meaning, as being derived from sonare. Consequently, I did not feel myself restricted to the form that has become customary since the end of the eighteenth century." (Charles Joseph, Stravinsky and the Piano, 162.)
