If there is anything more fun than a Grand Prix at the classic Barcelona-Catalunya circuit it is a rain race at this circuit. Current weather forecasts of the upcoming Grand Prix weekend estimate the chance of rain on Sunday to be relatively high, although the remaining two race days will most likely remain dry.

With an average temperature of 24 degrees celsius, it will be pleasant driving at the circuit in Barcelona. With these conditions, the asphalt will have a good temperature for the drivers, and low grip situations like in Portimao will be avoided.

On Friday and Saturday, the chance of rain is estimated at 0%. On these days it will be sunny for the most part.

Chance on precipitation during Grand Prix

The weather forecast for Sunday is the most interesting one. In the morning it will be sunny and quiet but in the afternoon the chance of precipitation rises to 40%. Especially in the later afternoon, it can become turbulent and there might be some showers over the circuit. That promises excitement!
