Weather forecast United States Grand Prix | Another warm race in Austin

Formula 1 drivers and teams have had an off-weekend to recover from the intense heat in Qatar. F1 returns this weekend, and it's the start of a triple header. The weather forecast is warm, dry and sunny. Thankfully, it shouldn't be as warm and humid as in Qatar.

What is the weather forecast for the United States GP?

Throughout the weekend, the temperature will reach 33c during the day. Clear skies are expected on Friday, with constant sunshine hitting the track. Humidity is predicted to be 37%. The same temperature is predicted across all three days (one degree cooler on Sunday), though there are two changes that teams will have to keep an eye on.

From Friday to Saturday, the wind changes direction. On Friday, the wind is expected to be north-westerly. During the sprint Saturday and the Grand Prix on Sunday, the wind is forecast to switch to the south direction. Sunday is expected to bring more cloud cover than the other two days, so the track temperatures might be very slightly cooler.
