The 2025 F1 Belgian Grand Prix will be a wet race as rain storms batter Spa. 

Throughout the weekend, conditions have been dry, but on Sunday morning, the rain started to come down heavily, with rivers forming across the track as FIA F3 went out for the formation lap for their feature race.

After three cars spun, including two in a collision on the Kemmel Straight due to a lack of visibility, red flags were flown as the cars formed up in the pit-lane. 

The rain has shown no sign of easing up during the suspension, which occurred shortly after 0840 local time. 

As of 0850 local time, the FIA's official weather system reports a 100% chance of rain, with intermittent rain throughout the morning, including in the slot for FIA F2. 

The race resumed at 0905 local time behind the safety car. But after a car became beached on a kerb, the red flags were thrown once again, with the race not resuming. No points were awarded or a winner declared.

However, conditions had then improved enough for the FIA F2 race to start shortly after 10:00. local time, albeit with a rolling start.

By the time of the F1 race at 1500 local, there is expected to be a 60% chance of rain, with possible thunderstorms. 

If conditions for the F1 race are as such as they were for the FIA F3 race, it is unlikely to go ahead.
