F1 returns after a three-week mid-season break for the Belgian Grand Prix at the famous Spa-Francorchamps circuit - and the third sprint weekend of the 2025 season.
Lando Norris won his home race last time out at the British Grand Prix, capitalising on teammate Oscar Piastri’s penalty to claim his second victory in a row. Piastri’s lead in the world championship is now just eight points at the halfway stage of the season.
Nico Hulkenberg secured his first-ever podium in F1 at Silverstone, while Lewis Hamilton once again finished fourth as he continues to chase a first podium in Ferrari red.
Hamilton won last year’s race at Spa-Francorchamps after George Russell was disqualified. This weekend’s race will also be the first since Christian Horner’s dismissal at Red Bull, with Laurent Mekies taking charge for the first time.
But what is the weather forecast in Spa on Sunday?
Rain is in the air on Sunday morning, with a 70% chance of precipitation.
A thunderstorm is expected in the region around 2pm local time - one hour before lights out - with an 80% chance of rain. From 3pm, when the race starts, the showers are expected to decrease.
By the end of the two-hour race period, the chance of rain has fallen to 40%.
The 2021 Belgian GP was abandoned due to wet weather. Organisers will be hoping to avoid a repeat today.
