Saudi Arabian Grand Prix weather forecast

After rain washed out the second free practice session, here is how it sits for the rest of the weekend...

Saturday

Temperatures are set to remain around 13 degrees for qualifying with overcast skies darkening the mood at times, and sunshine and showers also expected in a mixed bag of a day weather-wise.

The chance of rain is at around 50 per cent at times, meaning we could have further interruptions and influence from the rain, which could mix up the grid a little.

Sunday

Sunshine is expected for race day while will top out at 18 degrees but could fall as low as 15, providing a headache for drivers when attempting to warm their tyres.

Rain is an almost non-existent threat with less than 10 per cent chance of hitting the circuit during the race, in contrast to the rest of the weekend.
