An uncertain weather is expected to affect the the whole Dutch weekend since the FP1 until the GP. Will the Netherland be sunny or rainy? Let's discover the weather forecast.
The last year in Netherland we enjoyed a dry race without any drop of rain and Lando Norris winning, meanwhile in the 2023 we assisted to a great performance of the home hero, Max Verstappen, under the shower of the Dutch GP. What will we see this year and who'll win?
FP1 and FP2 weather forecast
For the first two sessions we will see two different conditions. The FP1 will be cloudy with 19 degrees as air temperature and 27°C on track. The rain is not expected for this session with a chance of 20%.
The FP2 will be rainy with a chance of 80% and 5-10 mm expected. Even if it will rain the temperature won't be affected and will be the same of the FP1.

On saturday we will showers coming from the sea before midday and for the FP3 1-3 mm are expected (80% of chance). Also the wind will cover a lead role peaking to 30 kph.
The Qualifying session will be the hotter session of the weekend with track temperature up to 29°C and 20°C as air temperature. Light rain is expected but with a low chance of 40%.
The sunday race will really be unpredictable. A great shower is expected in the morning but the situation will improve during the day. The chance of rain at the start of the race is 40% and probably the race will change from a full wet condition to a inter one. Also the track temperature will be 30°C at the lights off but it'll fall during the race. Which strategies are the teams going to use in Netherlands?
