Singapore Grand Prix weather: What is the forecast for the Marina Bay race weekend?
After Monza brought about a long-awaited return to dry-weather running in Formula 1, the most likely scenario is a continuation of that trend in Singapore, though as Formula 1 knows all too well from its previous visits here, a heavy downpour can never be ruled out.
The rain threat on Friday drops from 30 per cent at the start of FP1 to below 10 once FP2 comes around, with the chances of rain also slim for qualifying and race day.
Friday 15 September: FP1 [30°C, sunny spells and showers, 30% chance of rain], FP2 [29°C, clear skies, 10% chance of rain]
Saturday 16 September: FP3 [29°C, sunny spells and showers, 30% chance of rain], Qualifying [28°C, clear skies, 10% chance of rain]
Sunday 17 September: Race [29°C, cloudy, 10% chance of rain]
