Unlike in 2018, when a brief race shower happened mid-race, there are set to be no weather surprises in the 2025 F1 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.
The race is scheduled to start at 17:00 local time at Yas Marina, with temperatures set to be around 27 degrees Celsius, but as dusk transitions to night, it is set to only cool one or two degrees by the time a champion is crowned.
In terms of wind direction and possibly aiding overtaking, drivers are not set to receive the boost with winds coming from the north.
This corresponds to a tail-wind down the main straight, with a head-wind more beneficial to overtaking as it increases the slipstream to a following car.
