However, the drivers are set to be thrown an added challenge with temperatures sitting well above 30 degrees Celcius. A maximum of 34 degrees Celcius is projected across Friday and Saturday when practice and qualifying will take place. Race day on Sunday will also see a maximum of 34 degrees however there is also a risk of thunderstorms throughout the day.
