F1 betting<\/u><\/a> at Betway, Hamilton is -154 to win the Sprint Race, followed by Antonelli (+190), Verstappen (+650), Russell (+1600) and Leclerc (+1800).<\/p>\n\u201cVery surprised, very surprised,\u201d said Russell today, per ESPN, coming off his win last weekend in Austria. \u201cThey [Ferrari] have been on the back foot with power unit and energy management, but here they look the best at the moment. We have always known they have a great chassis. Some things aren\u2019t quite making sense.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf I were to have predicted, I would have said Ferrari fast last weekend and us to be quick this week. But Ferrari has had the upper hand all day. Relative lap time just not really there. We need to understand for tomorrow, the more important day.\u201d<\/p>\n
That\u2019s notable for sports bettors.<\/p>\n
For Sunday\u2019s British Grand Prix, Hamilton is the betting favorite at +140, followed by Antonelli at +160, Russell at +500, Verstappen at +650, and Leclerc at +1400.<\/p>\n
Tomorrow\u2019s Sprint Race is 7 a.m. EST, with Qualifying for Sunday\u2019s race starting at 11 a.m. EST.<\/p>\n
The British Grand Prix on Sunday starts at 10 a.m. EST. <\/p>\n
In the Drivers\u2019 Championship, up to eight points are up for grabs in tomorrow\u2019s Sprint.<\/p>\n
Current weather forecasts call for a dry weekend. Silverstone Circuit is one of Formula 1\u2019s fastest and most historic venues. For sports bettors, Silverstone often produces more overtaking than many modern Formula 1 tracks because of its long straights and multiple DRS (Drag Reduction System) zones, making race strategy, tire degradation and safety cars especially important.<\/p>\n
That means live betting opportunities can be plentiful, with fortunes changing through pit-stop timing, changing weather and late-race passes.<\/p>\n
For bettors, is Ferrari\u2019s pace genuine over a race distance? Has Ferrari found a setup well suited to Silverstone\u2019s high-speed corners? If Hamilton converts the Sprint pole into a strong Sprint result, his odds for Sunday\u2019s Grand Prix will shorten even more.<\/p>\n
Hamilton to win the Sprint is my play, with the enormous home support.<\/p>\n
Silverstone has been Hamilton\u2019s best circuit over the years, and with Ferrari looking competitive on a high-speed track, I am also looking at Hamilton to finish of Sunday\u2019s podium (-334 at Betway), and Hamilton with the Fastest Lap (+275).<\/p>\n"}]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.betway.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/119346","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.betway.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.betway.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.betway.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=119346"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/blog.betway.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/119346\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":119347,"href":"https:\/\/blog.betway.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/119346\/revisions\/119347"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.betway.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/116630"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.betway.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=119346"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.betway.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=119346"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.betway.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=119346"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
