CHINESE GRAND PRIX 2025

 The last F1 race two weeks ago saw an all-out dominant performance from Mclaren as Oscar Piastri put in a brilliant drive to hold off his teammate, Lando Norris for the win with Norris finishing in second. George Russell continued his impressive under the radar run and grabbed third spot while Verstappen finished in fourth. Ferrari had a race to forget with both Leclerc and Hamilton getting disqualified after the race and receiving no points.

Lando Norris (Mclaren) 2.40

Oscar Piastri (Mclaren) 3.00

Max Verstappen (Red Bull Racing) 7.50

Charles Leclerc (Ferrari) 12.00

George Russell (Mercedes) 13.00

Lewis Hamilton (Ferrari) 17.00

 

Betting and Verdict:

In sport it is often forgotten how big a home ground advantage is and for this upcoming weekend not only does Yuki Tsunoda have that, but he also has the reins to a brand new, much faster car. He finished tenth at last years GP with his old team, but will surely improve on that this weekend. I can see him being fired up for this race and putting in his biggest performance of his career in front of his home crowd.

Suggested Bet: Yuki Tsunoda podium finish at 6.00.

 

 

George Russell has continued his solid start to the season with back-to-back third place finishes and valuable points for his team. He has continued to go under the radar with all the noise going on in F1 at the moment and he is in the perfect position to grab another podium this weekend.

Suggested Bet:  George Russell podium finish at 3.75.
