[Aggiornamento sabato 8 ottobre ore 20.30] – The forecasts at Suzuka in the Mie prefecture are worsening in view of tomorrow’s Grand Prix at 7 am Italian time, 2 pm in Japan. The rain expected at 3 pm seems destined to fall before the start and with such intensity as to jeopardize the start on time for the Grand Prix. Tomorrow morning you will find all the information in the direct written dedicated to the Japanese Grand Prix, a week ago for example in Singapore the start was delayed by over an hour due to rain.
A week away from the chaos generated at the Singapore Grand Prix, delayed by an hour due to the rain that hit Marina Bay shortly before the start, also for the Japanese Grand Prix the nightmare of precipitation could return. This weekend, in fact, Formula 1 will be back on track immediately on the circuit of Suzukareturning to the calendar for the first time since 2019. In a period characterized by thunderstorms and violent rains that hit Asia (as witnessed by the Thailand GP in MotoGP), the upcoming weekend could re-propose cases of bad weather even in Far East, without excluding the Prefecture of Mie, where the track that will host F1 is located.
Specifically, the most concrete risk is expected for the day of Friday 7 October, that is the one in which the first two free practice sessions will be staged. Not surprisingly, the chances of rain are even at 96%, with precipitation even of a certain intensity expected at various times of the day. On the contrary, the qualifications Saturdays should take place in conditions of dry trackwith the weather forecast by accuweather.com which almost completely exclude rain, with mostly cloudy skies.
However, for teams and drivers the main attention is all directed to the race of Sunday October 9, also surmounted by a large question mark. Although with a percentage of rain lower than that of Friday, and with less violent showers, rainfall is expected right in the afternoonie during the race.
