Weekend weather: What can we expect during the Azerbaijan GP?

The Azerbaijan Grand Prix isn't likely to be affected by rain this weekend, as a look ahead at the weather forecast suggests hot and sunny conditions.

03 June 2021

The entirety of the Azerbaijan weekend looks set to take place in warm and dry conditions, as the weather forecast suggests quite high air temperatures. The weather forecast, supplied by our partners at WeerOnline.nl, sees hot and sunny conditions throughout Friday's two practice sessions, Saturday's qualifying day, and race day on Sunday. While the circuit has a lot of shadow due to winding its way through tall buildings in the heart of Baku city, the more open areas such as the main straight are quite likely to see high track temperatures. This is due to air temperatures of over 25 degrees celsius seen on each day. However, there will be some breezy conditions, with Sunday being the breeziest of all. This could lead to some tricky driving conditions.
