F1 Austrian Grand Prix weather forecast - latest today from Spielberg - GPFans EN

Here's what the weather forecast looks like during the 2024 Austrian Grand Prix weekend in Spielberg.

The Red Bull Ring plays host to the 11th round of the 2024 season from June 28-30. This marks the second race of the European triple-header following Barcelona and precedes the historic British Grand Prix at Silverstone next week.

The Austrian Grand Prix also welcomes the third Sprint of the season following China and Miami, with Austin, Brazil, and Qatar remaining on the schedule to host the 100km race this year.

However, unlike the mostly sunny and dry conditions witnessed in Barcelona, the weather in Spielberg promises to be a different story altogether with early forecasts suggesting that rain could well play a part at some point during the weekend.
