Japanese Grand Prix: Rain is a possibility

2025-04-03 Japanese Grand Prix: Rain is a possibility

In Japan (unfortunately...) there is a serious tradition of chaos races, just think of poor Jules Bianchi's case or the grand prix that caused huge confusion in 2022.

We sincerely hope that no similar sad events or difficulties will overshadow the Japanese Grand Prix, however, it is worth preparing for a rainy Sunday. It is spring in Japan, so sunny but cool temperatures around 15 degrees are expected on Friday and Saturday. However, by Sunday, the sky will be overcast over Suzuka, and there is a significant chance that a large amount of precipitation will arrive during the day.

Browsing through various meteorological services, we get a very different picture; it may happen that only a little rain falls in the morning of the race day, or a heavy downpour arrives just in time for the race. Either way, we expect an exciting Japanese Grand Prix, and something tells us that Red Bull Racing's “rookie” Yuki Tsunoda will also have a role to play.
