Temperatures are still high in Barcelona, and the forecast for this Sunday's race is 29ºC, with a sensation of 30ºC and relative humidity at 30%.
After a very stressful start to the weekend due to high temperatures, the drivers will have another hot day ahead of them at the Spanish GP on Sunday (22). For the time of the race, scheduled for 3 pm local time (10 am GMT-3), the forecast is for sunny weather, with only a few clouds, with temperatures around 29C, with a thermal sensation of 30°C and air humidity at 30% - lower than that seen in qualifying, which was 36%.
The low humidity indicates that it will be an even more challenging day for the physical part. After qualifying on Saturday, several drivers had also expressed concern about tire wear in abrasive Barcelona, especially in the heat.
The wind is also something that usually receives attention at the Catalan track, and at race time, the forecast is for gusts of 26 km/h, with a force of 22 km/h. In the F2 race, the asphalt temperature reached 40°C, so Formula 1 drivers can expect an above condition for the race. Information is from the weather service Accuweather.
