Formula 1 returns to action this weekend as Spa-Francorchamps hosts Round 13 of the 2025 season – but what sort of weather can the drivers expect in Belgium?
The iconic Spa circuit has been the scene of many a dramatic race over the years, often featuring mixed conditions – and it looks like rain could potentially be on the cards this year as things stand, with a chance of showers forecast during the three days of action alongside sunny spells and cloud cover.
McLaren were again on top form last time out at Silverstone, with Lando Norris winning in front of his home crowd in a wet/dry race. Can the Briton continue that form this weekend at Spa?
Last year’s Belgian Grand Prix, which took place in dry weather, was won by Lewis Hamilton following the disqualification of George Russell due to a technical infringement, but how will their respective teams – Ferrari and Mercedes – fare this time around?
Scroll down for a more detailed look at the forecast for the weekend.
