Weather forecast Italian GP
The opening day on Friday promises to be immediately pleasant. While the temperature drops below 20 degrees Celsius at night, it rises to 32 degrees during the first free practice sessions. The sun will shine brightly throughout the day, and a gentle southeast wind is expected to have little impact on track conditions. Visitors to the Italian GP are therefore well advised to bring sunscreen to the circuit. With no less than twelve hours of sunshine per day, the sun in Monza can be merciless. The chance of precipitation is currently negligible.

Fans hoping for a rain race – something we have not yet seen this F1 season – will have to be patient a little longer. Everything points to Monza offering mainly sun and sizzling temperatures this weekend.
