F1 will return to the United States later this week for the 2025 edition of the US GP, held at the Circuit of the Americas. This is predicted to be yet another exciting race, considering the competition at the top of the Drivers' Championship.
The air and the weather around the circuits largely characterize Formula 1 races. Races that run too hot turn out to be disastrous for the cars, as it affects their engines, braking, and most commonly, the tire wear. These are the reasons why F1 teams spend hours before a race weekend analyzing the weather predictions and then shaping their strategies.
Heading into Texas for the race, the temperatures are expected to be hotter, despite the changing weather. There seems to be no chance of any precipitation throughout the three days, and the drivers could be focusing more on tire management, owing to the rising mercury.

The 2025 edition of the F1 US GP is expected to be an exciting race, considering the thin margins that divide the drivers at the top. While the track temperatures might give an upper hand to McLaren, other teams have managed to close up the gap to them, too. With Max Verstappen also being considered a contender for the Drivers' World Championship, it would be interesting to see what changes Red Bull Racing bring to their cars.
