Weather twist expected to shake up the Japanese Grand Prix

The Formula 1 season continues this weekend at the Japanese Grand Prix, where Max Verstappen has been the dominant force over the past season. The Dutchman won the last four Grands Prix at the Suzuka Circuit.

The last time anyone but Verstappen won in Japan was in 2019, when current Cadillac driver Valtteri Bottas crossed the finish line first place.

Following the Sprint in Shanghai, the Japanese Grand Prix will feature a standard F1 weekend with three free practice sessions.

Friday is expected to be cloudy, with a temperature of 17°C, according to Weather.com. There is a 7% chance of rain, and winds could reach 10-15 kph on the first day.

Saturday carries the highest chance of rain, with showers expected in the afternoon. Temperatures are forecasted to reach 18°C on the second day of action.

The weekend concludes with another partly cloudy day on Sunday, with temperatures once again reaching 18°C and a 10% chance of rain.
