First Forecast for the Portugal Grand Prix

4/26/2021

Calm conditions are expected for this weekend race in Portugal as weak, low pressures will be lingering through Sunday. We see a slight chance for showers Friday and Saturday afternoon before clearing out on Sunday. Temps will be mild with wind speeds being light in the morning and progressively gustier into the late afternoons. These gusts could reach up to 26 mph but are only expected to be sustained around 11 mph, so it will be interesting to see how these drivers' handle them.

We saw in the last race what even just a little bit of water on the track can do, so it will be quite a game-changer if we end up seeing some showers prior to the races start or even just throughout the weekend. These cool, cloudy conditions will require drivers' to keep their tyre temperatures up as well in order to gain maximum grip around the track. 

This F1 season is shaping up to be a competitive one just through two races, and we have no reason to believe why this race won't be as well. I will continue to watch the timing and likelihood of these showers and keep you all updated. A metric graphic is displayed below...
