On the first day of the race weekend, it will be a maximum of 27 degrees and mostly sunny, according to Weather.com. However, there is still a 23 per cent chance of rain on the day of the first and second free practice sessions. That chance increases to 50 per cent on Saturday. Thunderstorms are also expected in the afternoon that day and temperatures drop to 25 degrees.

The temperature looks set to remain the same for the Grand Prix on Sunday, but the chance of rain decreases to 31 per cent. Still, the medium does indicate that the sun disappears completely behind the clouds and rain would fall in the afternoon. The race will also be held at the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez in the afternoon, so there is a chance of a rainy race this weekend.
