How to Bet on the Italian Grand Prix at Monza

Understanding the Monza Circuit

Formula One races at Monza are unique compared to other circuits on the calendar. This is due to its ultra-high speeds and low downforce setups. Here, drivers remain at full throttle for nearly 80% of a lap, meaning engine performance, traction and aerodynamic efficiency is vital. 

Monza Circuit consists of long straights, tight chicanes, and minimal run-off areas, so overtakes are frequent, and mistakes can be costly! The track has also undergone recent repaving, which will alter degradation and grip, and could impact tyre strategies. Most drivers do a one-stop race at Monza, but this could all change this weekend! 

What to Bet on at Monza

Race Winner & Podium Finishes

As the name suggests, with a Race Winner bet, you are betting on who will cross the finish line first, while podium finishes bets involve placing bets on the drivers that you think will finish in the top three places on the podium. At Monza, particularly, the focus is often on drivers with strong straight-line speed who can be the ones to look towards when placing your bets on race winner or podium finisher bets. 

Classified Finishers

Classified finishers in an F1 race are any drivers who complete the race. When placing bets on the classified finishers, your bet will be settled on the total number of finishers according to the FIA official results. Any drivers who do not complete 90% of the race distance will be classified as non-finishers.

Winning Margin

Winning margin bets involve punters predicting which drivers will win the Grand Prix and the margin by which they will win it. Bookmakers will provide different time ranges for bettors to select how much the winning margin will be. Get it correct along with the winning driver and your bet should be a success.

Special Picks & Value Bets

Take the time to identify any potential value bets on the race where drivers, instances, or events may have been mispriced. Also, look for any bookies that are offering special picks for the Grand Prix. These can be pre-built bets that contain several outcomes or situations that could happen with enhanced odds.
