As usual, the Spa-Francorchamps track will host a grand prix that has historically been known for having quite unpredictable and sometimes chaotic weather for motor sport due to the heavy rains that form around it, as happened in the last season, when after many hours without activity on the track, the race was finished by counting the few laps that the cars had done behind the safety car.

The temperature will drop and not even reach 20º throughout the day.
On Sunday, August 28, the race will be held, the session that distributes the points.
