F1 Spanish Grand Prix weather forecast - latest today from Barcelona

Here's what the weather forecast looks like during the 2024 Spanish Grand Prix weekend in Barcelona.

F1 heads to the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya for the 10th round of the season, fresh off a dramatic Canadian Grand Prix that saw Max Verstappen take his 60th career victory in a rain-affected race.

However, Barcelona offers a stark contrast - a scorching summer sun that can turn the track into a furnace, pushing drivers to their physical limits as they battle for supremacy.

With the championship fight heating up, the weather could be a crucial factor in determining who comes out on top.
