Popular F1 Betting Markets

There are many betting markets available on Formula 1, and we have looked at some of the most popular and explained how each works.

Fastest Qualifier

Reserved specifically for qualifying, these bets involve predicting who will come out of qualifying as the fastest. Take a look at the previous qualifying sessions and results from previous weeks, as well as results from previous qualifying at the same circuit, to help you predict who might come out on top in Q3 and secure P1 on the grid.

Race Winner

The most common way to bet on the race, placing Formula One race winner bets, involves bettors backing the driver they think will go on to finish P1. Make sure to do some research before placing your race winner bet. Look at the previous winners of that race or the races leading up to it to get a gauge of what could happen.

Podium Finish

A popular Formula One betting market, Podium Finish bets provide three chances of your bet being a success. To place this bet, simply wager an amount on the driver(s) you think will secure a spot on the podium in a given race; this is first, second, or third. If the driver you have bet on finishes in any of the podium places, your bet should be a success.

Top 6 Finish

Placing bets on a top 6 finish involves simply predicting who you think will finish in the top six places of a Formula One grand prix. Place your bets on the driver or the team with markets available for both and get it right for your bet to be a success! It can be worth reviewing the previous top 6 race results and race form when placing this bet.


F1 Betting Tips

  • Research Driver Form - Look at the drivers' form leading up to the Belgian Grand Prix. This can help you get a feel for what sort of performance to expect, what drivers are in form, and how they could potentially perform in a race.

  • Previous Belgian Grand Prix - Research past Belgian Grand Prix races to see how the races have gone, the amount of experience there is on the grid, and identify any drivers who could be underdogs at the circuit.

  • Past/Recent Results - Explore the past results at Spa to help see which cars the track suits and which drivers could be on the top three steps of the podium.

  • Weather - A big factor that regularly affects the Belgian Grand Prix is the weather. Check the forecast ahead of the race to see if rain is predicted for a wet race, or if it will be a dry race that can impact the results.


About the Belgian Grand Prix

The Belgian Grand Prix is one of the drivers' most loved circuits on the Formula 1 calendar. It features fast corners and demanding straights, including the famous and thrilling Eau Rouge, arguably one of the most famous sequences of corners in the world.
