Russian Grand Prix – The weather forecast is bad for this weekend
In Sochi, the rain will make a comeback. Teams will have to find new strategies for the race. It might not take place.
Another masquerade in sight? For the return of F1, rain will indeed make its comeback throughout the weekend in Russia. The sun, on the other hand, is not expected to make an appearance.
Max Verstappen arrives in Sochi as the championship leader, but Red Bull lags behind in the constructors’ standings compared to its rival Mercedes. After a race in Italy that saw the season’s top two drivers retire, the Russian Grand Prix promises an interesting strategic battle. However, the conditions are far from ideal. The rain will not stop during the weekend and the current situation is not optimal for driving. We could find ourselves in a situation similar to that in Belgium. Therefore, the qualifying sessions will be crucial.
