<\/p>\nF1 Barcelona Grand Prix weather forecast
\nFriday, June 12: FP1 & FP2<\/p>\n
\nThe first session of the weekend gets underway at 1:30pm local time (CEST), and will play out in glorious conditions as Spain revels in early summer heat.
<\/p>\n
\nTemperatures will be sat at 25 degrees Celsius, but under the clear blue skies, that will have a real feel of around 30 degrees.
<\/p>\n
\nHumidity will be high, at 63 per cent, while wind speeds will be just 5mph, not providing any problems for drivers as they attempt to find their braking points around the circuit.
<\/p>\n
\nThere is a zero per cent chance of rain, as there is for FP2, which kicks off at 5pm local time and is once again set for sunny, hot conditions.
<\/p>\n
\nTemperatures will have risen slightly to 26 degrees Celsius by then, but they will have a real feel of 31.
<\/p>\n
Saturday, June 13: FP3 & Qualifying<\/p>\n
\nThe final practice session of the weekend takes place on Saturday early afternoon, and Saturday is set to be the hottest day of the three.
<\/p>\n
\nOnce again, glorious conditions will grace the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, with sun expected all day and a temperature even by the start of FP3 at 12:30pm of 27 degrees Celsius.
<\/p>\n
\nThis will have a real feel of 31 in what will be a stifling afternoon for the drivers, but once again, there is not a single drop of rain expected for the whole of Saturday’s running.
<\/p>\n
\nFP3 is followed by qualifying at 4pm local time, with the sun continuing to beam down. The temperatures may climb to 28 for the first competitive session of the weekend, and that brings with it a real feel of 32.
<\/p>\n
\nHumidity will be lower than on Friday, sat at just over 50 per cent, while the wind speeds remain low for Saturday’s running.
<\/p>\n
Sunday, June 14: Race<\/p>\n
\nAs always, the main event of the weekend takes place on Sunday, with lights out for the 2026 Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix at 3pm local time (CEST).
<\/p>\n
\nThere is a zero per cent chance of rain falling throughout the day, meaning we will get a dry race, and it could be a hot few hours for the drivers, with temperatures sat up at 27 degrees Celsius.
<\/p>\n
\nWith a real feel of 32, and humidity hovering around the 60 per cent mark, the race could be a real physical battle, and drivers will have to overcome that if they want to claim victory.
