As ever, race-day morning has brought some heavy rain at Silverstone ahead of the British Grand Prix. 

The FIA F3 race was actually abandoned owing to the torrential downpour battering Northamptonshire, with the FIA F2 race starting in wet conditions, but the track began to dry quickly as the race developed.

As for the F1 grand prix, due to start at 15:00 local time, this is the current weather forecast, as of 1230 local time. 

Around 1300 local time, according to MetOffice data, there is expected to be a heavy rain shower passing over the track from the north-west to the south-east, with further rain in the area of Silverstone throughout the afternoon. 

There is a cell passing to the north-east of the track, hitting Northampton about 30 minutes before the start of the race, meaning a slight change in the wind direction could see this cell hit the track. 

After this cell, there is set to be no more rain, which could affect the 52-lap grand prix. 

The wind is blowing in from the north-west, meaning if the rain does hit, it will do so first around the Brooklands, Luffield, Woodcote, and Copse area of the track.
