Weather Forecast
Rain is unlikely to fall during the course of the weekend, which is unsurprising considering that the event is place in what is practically a desert.
That said, it should come as no surprise that mild weather is expected to dominate this weekend, with highs of 22, 24, and then 25 degrees expected for the three days of competition, though temperatures will drop somewhat as the sun sets.
Wind, on the other hand, might be a bigger influence, with gusts of up to 15-20 mph probable, which could make the cars heavier than in past seasons due to the new restrictions.
Friday may be foggy, but Saturday and Sunday will be clear, indicating that stable conditions are on the way in Sakhir as the 2022 Formula One season begins.
