Singapore Grand Prix: Weather forecast for the race
On Friday and Saturday the drivers ran on a dry track, and the chance of precipitation on race day is also low.
The customary thunderstorms will pass during the day — from 10:00 to 14:00 local time, washing away the layer of rubber laid down. The track will then dry.
The sun will set at 18:55, and at 20:00 local time the drivers are due to head out for the formation lap. By that time the air will have cooled to +28°C with a light southeast wind. The chance of precipitation during the race is no more than 5%.
