Formula 1’s British Grand Prix at Silverstone is expected to take place in warm and dry conditions, with no rain forecast through the weekend.
Current long-range forecasts indicate that much of Britain is set to bask in summery weather later this week after a prolonged phase of unsettled conditions.
Friday practice is due to be fine and sunny, with a gentle breeze, and temperatures at Silverstone peaking at 26°c.
More cloud is likely on Saturday, albeit with temperatures still up at 25°c, while conditions will remain settled.
Sunday’s grand prix is due to take place in sunny conditions, with little to no wind, and a maximum temperature of 27°c.
Only one race this year – the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix, held at Imola in April – has been affected by wet weather.
