With sprint and qualifying action to come at the Miami Grand Prix, the conditions have taken a sharp turn.

Indeed, whilst sunshine has adorned the Miami International Autodrome so far this weekend, rain has now struck just minutes away from the sprint race.

It remains to be seen whether or not the conditions remain the same for lights out, but a damp track has certainly thrown a spanner into the mix.

Let's take a look at the full forecast ahead of the remainder of today's action and indeed tomorrow's race!

Miami Grand Prix weather forecast

The first of two races takes place on Saturday, with the sprint taking place at 12pm local time.

Rain is currently pouring down onto the track after a shift in forecasts from the south, with Saturday's 100km event set to take place under wet conditions. This sudden change provides a chance for stars such as Verstappen to shine in the wet, putting Kimi Antonelli’s chances of converting his first pole position into a victory in jeopardy.

Highs of 27 degrees Celsius are expected for the sprint race while humidity levels are forecast at around 62 per cent.

Qualifying starts at 4pm local time, but the weather conditions could take an unexpected turn again, with sunnier spells and highs of 30 degrees Celsius forecast. The chance of rain drops to 20 per cent after heavy showers in the sprint, with wind gusts at 20km/h.

Sunday, May 4 - Race

Race day at the Miami International Autodrome gets underway at 4pm local time, with cloudier conditions expected throughout the course of the race.

Temperatures of 29 degrees Celsius are forecast for the 57-lap race, with wind gusts remaining around 20km/h and the chance of rain staying low, with only a 22 per cent chance of showers.
