If you’re heading to Albert Park this weekend, an emergency poncho or two might come in handy…
The Australian Grand Prix in 2025 is expected to experience heavy rain showers during the season-opener, with a 64% chance of rain at 15:00 AEDT. A significant storm system in the Tasman Sea off Tasmania and New Zealand will move towards Melbourne, drawing wind and rain from the Southern Ocean. Most of the system will impact New Zealand or the ocean, but Melbourne is in the path of a trailing edge that will hit on race day. If rain arrives, it will approach Albert Park from the south-west, potentially affecting the final corners first during the race. RacingNews365 will provide a detailed forecast closer to the event once the situation becomes clearer.
