Here's what the weather forecast looks like during the 2024 Spanish Grand Prix weekend in Barcelona.
F1 heads to the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya for the 10th round of the season, fresh off a dramatic Canadian Grand Prix that saw Max Verstappen take his 60th career victory in a rain-affected race.
However, Barcelona offers a stark contrast - a scorching summer sun that can turn the track into a furnace, pushing drivers to their physical limits as they battle for supremacy.
With the championship fight heating up, the weather could be a crucial factor in determining who comes out on top.
Here's a breakdown of the latest forecast for the three days of the race weekend:
Friday, June 21: FP1 & FP2
The sunny and dry weather from Friday's first practice continued for the second run, with the high temperature reaching a comfortable 24 degrees Celsius (75 degrees Fahrenheit).
Despite some rain showers earlier today, things look much drier now with only a 20% chance of rain during the race. Temperatures have cooled a bit from the morning highs, dropping down to 22 degrees.
Humidity stays around 70%, and a light southerly wind blows as the cars take to the track for the 3pm local time start.
