Almost zero risk of rain, only cloudy skies
From free practice at the Spanish Grand Prix to race day, according to reports from accuweather.comthe chances of precipitation will always be less than 30%, with the sky alternating clouds and sun for all scheduled sessions. The temperatures are also stable, ranging from a minimum of 23° to a maximum of 28°C on all three days.
