The Barcelona Grand Prix appears finely poised to be a nail-biter after what was witnessed during qualifying. However, could the weather conditions play a factor in how things shape out? Here is the weather forecast for race Sunday.<\/p>\n
It has been another weekend where the Mercedes<\/a> team have proven to be the most dominant heading through the weekend. However, this time it is George Russell<\/a> leading the field. The six-time race winner, having led much of the running throughout the weekend, again stormed to pole position with a lap time of 1:14.679, with team-mate and championship leader Kimi Antonelli<\/a> only third fastest after qualifying.Lewis Hamilton<\/a>, in the Scuderia Ferrari<\/a>, continued to build on his recently found form, qualifying in second place after consecutive podium finishes. Lando Norris<\/a> was able to clock a time quick enough for fourth place on the grid, with Max Verstappen<\/a>, who had a forgettable weekend last time out in Monaco, and team-mate Isack Hadjar<\/a> locking out the third row. Oscar Piastri<\/a> and Liam Lawson start a further row back, with their lap times quick enough for seventh and eighth respectively. Nico Hulkenberg marked Audi’s maiden Q3 appearance with a ninth-place starting spot, ahead of Charles Leclerc<\/a>, who endured another forgettable session after crashing his Scuderia Ferrari at Turn 4 of the Catalunya race circuit.Barcelona GP Sunday Weather Forecast<\/p>\n While the weekend has largely been warm, with temperatures reaching nearly 32\u00b0C through the first two competitive sessions, similar conditions can be expected on race Sunday.
