FORMULA ONE BETTING – HOW TO BET ON F1 GRAND PRIX WINNERS

Formula One can be an unpredictable sport. It is this uncertainty that makes F1 not just an immensely interesting sport, but also a very attractive betting medium. The uncertainty can often create widely differing opinions between different bookmakers. Bookmakers tend to regard Formula One Betting as a relatively low priority compared to the more “traditional” and popular betting sports such as horseracing, greyhound racing and football. As a result, odds compilers for Ladbrokes, bet365, Victor Chandler, William Hill, etc. tend to pay less attention to Grand Prix betting odds, resulting in the various firms adopting different stances regarding the same event. An odds compiler will endeavour to combine the factors influencing the outcome of a race to…

Formula One Betting – Bet on the F1 French Grand Prix

FORMULA ONE BETTING – BET ON THE F1 FRENCH GRAND PRIX – 22nd June

McLaren driver Lewis Hamilton is convinced that the 10-place grid penalty he incurred as a result of a pit lane crash in Canada will not affect his preparation for the French Grand Prix. Hamilton stated that he will be relying on aggression and strategy in order to put himself back into contention. As a result of the penalty, Hamilton is a best-priced 10/1 with Ladbrokes to win in France. McLaren will need to rethink their approach to the race but CEO Martin Whitmarsh, has high hopes of good results from both Mclaren representatives. He is fully aware that the team will only be able to run one car on the ideal race-plan, but seeks to…

FORMULA ONE – CANADIAN GRAND PRIX – June 8th

KEY DRIVERS / NEWS

The seventh round of the 2008 Formula One World Championship is the Canadian Grand Prix, at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve on Montreal’s Ile Notre Dame. Forecasters are predicting a wet weekend, from showers to thunderstorms. Victory at Monaco put Lewis Hamilton back into the lead of the Drivers’ Championship, and he is seeking to become this season’s first three race winner, at the circuit where he won his maiden Grand Prix last season. However, after Ferrari’s disappointing result at Monaco, it goes without saying that drivers Kimi Raikonnen and Felipe Massa will be suitably fired up, as each chases his own third victory of the season.

Meanwhile, the BMW Sauber pairing of Robert Kubica…

Ferrari scored a solid one-two at the last round in Spain, but both McLaren and BMW Sauber came away from the Circuit de Catalunya, having finished third and fourth, feeling encouraged, and both expect to challenge the red cars in Istanbul this weekend.

Heikki Kovalainen has been cleared by doctors to race in the Turkish Grand Prix, giving McLaren a boost as it aims to snap Ferrari’s winning streak. The 26-year-old Finn was given a go-ahead for the race after undergoing medical checks by governing body FIA on Thursday, following his violent crash in Spain. A wheel failure caused a tyre on Kovalainen’s car to explode and send him barrelling into a wall at high speed. The crash left him in a hospital overnight with slight injuries, including concussion.…

MOTOR RACING – May 25 – MONACO GRAND PRIX

HISTORY
As with several other European Grands Prix, the Monaco race predates the current World Championship. The principality’s first Grand Prix was organised in 1929 by Anthony Noghès, under the auspices of Prince Louis II, through the Automobile Club de Monaco (ACM). In order to attain full national status, Noghès proposed the creation of an automobile Grand Prix in the streets of Monte Carlo.
The first Grand Prix Automobile de Monaco was an invitation only event, but not all the invitees decided to attend. Maserati and Alfa Romeo drivers decided not to compete but Bugatti was well represented. Mercedes sent their leading driver, Rudolf Caracciola, to drive a Mercedes SSK. Caracciola drove a fighting race, bringing his SSK up to…

Spanish Grand Prix 2008 Betting

FORMULA ONE: SPANISH GRAND PRIX
The Spanish Grand Prix has been held, since 1991, at the Circuit de Catalunya near Barcelona, as part of the Formula One Championship.

History
The Spanish Grand Prix has had something of a troubled past. Following the Civil War, Spain returned to the Formula One calendar in 1951, at the Pedralbes circuit, near Barcelona. The course hosted two Formula One Grands Prix, but the Le Mans Disaster of 1955 meant stricter safety rules and the Pedralbes Circuit was permanently retired as a racing venue. In the 1960s, Spain returned to international motor racing, commissioning a new circuit north of Madrid at Jarama, and refurbishing the Montjuich circuit in Barcelona. Following the 1968 Spanish Grand Prix at Jarama, it was agreed that the race would…
