The hot and very humid weather promises high ambient temperatures between 33 and 31 degrees Celsius from Thursday through to Sunday, with the inevitable possibility of brief scattered thunderstorms. Even torrential rain here tends to dry up quickly, however.
The 5.543 kilometre (3.444 mile) circuit is unchanged since Kimi Raikkonen won for Ferrari last year.
The race will run over 56 laps or 310.408 kilometres (192.887 miles) and will start at 1700 hours local time, which is eight hours ahead of GMT.
