This Sunday (15:00 MSK, 13:00 CEST) the Grand Prix of Russia premieres at the coast of the Black Sea.
Formula-1 weather experts of UBIMET predict sunny and warm weather conditions and particularly: a chance of rain of nearly zero percent.
After the difficult forecasting and race conditions at the Suzuka race last weekend, there will be a different story as the teams move over to Sochi on the Black Sea coast.
Under the influence of a large anticyclone a period of dry weather can be expected for Sochi on all three days.
Temperatures will range from around 14 degrees Celsius overnight to 23 degrees Celsius by midday – which is the seasonal average. Winds will be mostly light with a diurnal shift from northeasterly at night to an onshore wind during the day.
All sessions on the following weekend will be dry with plenty of sunshine.
