The latest weather reports from Sakhir in Bahrain show a series of very threatening clouds, but no rain is expected during the Bahrain Grand Prix later today, with lights out at 4.10pm BST/11.10am EST.
It's been a while since we've had a wet race in F1, really. Hungary had a very wet qualifying, and rain came into play in Belgium as well on the Saturday, but no real wet races like Brazil 2016.
In Sakhir today, the air is cooler than it was yesterday, with more wind as well, meaning more sand being kicked up onto the track. The cooler temperatures should make it easier on the tyres, that normally suffer in the Bahrain desert.
No wet race then, but a windy and cool one!
