Heavy rain battered the Spa-Francorchamps circuit in Belgium for much of the day on Saturday and played its part in an exciting qualifying session.
Max Verstappen set the fastest lap in the end, although the rain abated significantly during the hour-long race, requiring medium tires throughout, but he would start from 11th on the grid as he was hit by 10th Start penalty.
As for the Red Bull driver's chances of playing? Their performance was greatly enhanced by the much clearer weather forecast for the Belgian Grand Prix.
Although rain continued into the night on Saturday, F1 fans in the area woke up to blue skies and bright sunshine, which was expected to continue throughout the day. F3 and F2 races take place on dry tracks.
There may be a few clouds when the race starts at 3pm local time (2pm BST), but there is zero chance of rain during the 44-lap race.
The temperature will rise to a pleasant 22 degrees Celsius and the track temperature will reach 44 degrees Celsius. Practice twice.
There will be a slight northwest wind, but the speed will be about 5 to 15 kilometers per hour and will not cause any impact.
