Temperatures are expected to reach 104 degrees during this weekend's French Grand Prix at Circuit Paul Ricard.

Round 12 of the 2022 Formula 1 World Championship takes us this weekend to Circuit Paul Ricard near Marseille, France, the current home of the French Grand Prix.

The French race returned to the current F1 calendar in 2018 after a ten year break and uses a 3.6-mile version of the track at Circuit Paul Ricard. The version features 15 corners, with the first sector the fastest and providing the best overtaking opportunities, especially under braking into Turns 1 and 3.

Going off the track is definitely to be avoided: the distinct red, white, and blue tricolour markings contain a high-friction material designed to slow cars down quickly, with high risk to flat spot the tires. Pirelli has nominated its White hard as the C2, Yellow medium as the C3, and Red soft as the C4.
