Will Ferrari keep side vents open in Jeddah? Weather forecast for 2025 F1 Saudi GP weekend. We checked the weather forecast for the weekend of the Saudi Arabian GP in Jeddah.

In the fifth race of the 2025 Formula 1 season, F1 heads to the track in Jeddah, and for this reason, we looked into the weather forecast for the weekend of the Saudi Arabian GP, which Ferrari hopes will validate the updates brought to the SF-25 as they aim to further reduce the gap to McLaren.

After securing fourth and fifth place in Sakhir, the Maranello team is aiming for its first podium of the season on Saudi soil. Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc got their first taste of the updates introduced on the SF-25 single-seater, which the Maranello technicians hope will be more effective in Jeddah.

At the same time, it will be interesting to see if Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc’s direct rivals will confirm the performances shown in Bahrain, or if we’ll see a shift in the pecking order on the Saudi street circuit.

The weather forecast for the Jeddah weekend
In Saudi Arabia, the heat is expected to return. This is a factor not to be underestimated, as in Bahrain — as well as during testing — Ferrari was forced to open the cooling slots on the SF-25’s engine cover to avoid overheating. We’ll see if the team faces similar issues in Jeddah.
