- GPblog.com
It's not raining in Sochi yet, but the rain has already left its mark on the Formula 3 race weekend. The program has been changed due to the expected rain. For the time being, nothing is changed in Formula 1.
Friday's programme revised
A lot of rain is expected tomorrow in Sochi, which makes F1 anxious for a wet qualifying session. There is room in the program to change things around. This is also evident in the program of Formula 3.
Formula 3 will hold practice today at the Sochi Autodrom, qualifying and the first race of the weekend. Meanwhile, F1 also has two free practice sessions scheduled on Friday.
Due to the change of schedule the Formula 2 qualifying session will also be moved. It will now take place earlier at 16:20. For the F1-timetable nothing changes. It remains to be seen how things will be on Saturday, in any case, there will be extra space to move things around on Saturday.
BREAKING: Race 1 has been rescheduled for today at 17:25 local time (+3 UTC)
