Spain stands as the last race weekend of the European triple header, which consisted of Imola, Monaco and Spain, before the sport heads across the Atlantic for the Canadian Grand Prix in the next two weeks.
The upcoming grand prix also marks a new technical directive which will be brought into the championship going forward from this race, as the FIA clamp down on flexi-wings. This new directive is expected to cause a shift in the pecking order as the sport progresses to the end of the current regulations.
McLaren’s Oscar Piastri remains the championship leader heading into Barcelona, but the Australian’s advantage has been cut down following Lando Norris’ victory in Monaco last time out.
The two teammates are only separated by three points going into the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, with McLaren continuing to dominate the constructors’ championship with 319 points to their name.
What is the weather expected to be like?
According to the Met Office, the weekend is expected to be a dry one, with sunny weather expected all weekend. The only exception to this would be race day, as the sun is expected to give way to some cloud with sunny intervals.
The weekend will remain warm during the official F1 sessions, with temperatures ranging from 23° to 27° across the weekend.
The Spanish GP is forecast to remain dry, with a chance of rain remaining low at less than 5%.
