After a dramatic Las Vegas Grand Prix, F1 heads to the Lusail International Circuit for the penultimate race weekend of the 2025 season.

And we have a three-horse race for the drivers' championship title heading into the final two events of the campaign!

Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri's disqualifications from the Las Vegas GP mean that four-time champion Max Verstappen is now just 24 points behind Norris and level on points with Piastri, with 58 points still up for grabs across the final two grands prix.

The Qatar GP is a sprint race weekend which means there are two races and two opportunities for the drivers to score points.

Norris can actually wrap up the title in Lusail, and save a nervous season finale at the Abu Dhabi GP a week later.

So, how will the weather forecast impact the sprint and main race this weekend?

Sunday, November 30 (Qatar Grand Prix main race)

Lights out for the main event on Sunday is at 7pm local time (AST), with again not a single drop of rain expected to impact the championship battle between our three protagonists.

Conditions should be fairly manageable for the drivers, with temperatures forecast around 24 degrees Celsius, which could feel more like 27 degrees with humidity at around 56 per cent.

The 57-lap main race is set to be a mandatory two-stop race, and drivers are unlikely to suffer the kind of conditions they faced at the 2023 event, not least because it's later in the year, and also because drivers are now allowed to use driver cooling systems, if the FIA deem it to reach 'heat hazard' conditions.

There will be light winds hitting the Lusail International Circuit, and are not expected to catch drivers out as they try to find their braking points.
