Our weather forecasting system uses multiple high-quality data sources to provide the most accurate predictions possible:
The weather forecasts include comprehensive meteorological parameters:
Accuracy Note: Weather forecasts become more accurate the closer you get to the event date. Long-range forecasts (7+ days) should be considered general guidance rather than precise predictions. Short-term forecasts (1-3 days) typically have 85-90% accuracy for temperature and 70-80% for precipitation.
Our system provides weather forecast data up to 16 days in advance of any F1Academy session. This timeframe is determined by the limitations of current meteorological models and their accuracy over extended periods.
The availability and precision of weather data follows this schedule:
The system uses three types of forecast data, depending on availability:
Important: For races beyond the 16-day window, you'll see a message indicating when the forecast will become available. The exact date when forecasts become available is calculated automatically based on the session date.
The "F1A Impact" section provides Formula 1 Academy-specific analysis of how weather conditions might affect racing performance, strategy, and safety. This analysis is generated using an algorithm that considers multiple weather parameters and their specific effects on Formula 1 Academy cars.
Our F1A Impact analysis includes assessments of:
The analysis uses specific thresholds developed through historical analysis of weather effects on F1A performance:
Note: The F1A Impact analysis is provided as informed guidance based on meteorological data and F1A performance patterns. It should be considered alongside team strategy announcements and official FIA communications.
