Formula 1 Betting By Numbers
Below you can find the charts for the 'Winning Driver' betting market and over the next few days I'll also be covering a few other betting markets such as Podium Finish, Top Ten Finish, etc.
As usual I've produced two form charts; the first based on the last six races and weighted in favour of recent results, and the second based on the entire 2013 season.
Here's the first form chart:
'Betting Profit' Chart For Winning Driver (Current Form):
Winning Driver | Profit* | Winning Bet |
Nico Rosberg | 3.17 | 2 |
Lewis Hamilton | 2.75 | 1 |
Sebastian Vettel | 2.42 | 3 |
Rest Of The Field | -3.50 | 0 |
* Profit weighted in favour of recent races. To be specific, I've calculated the returns based on a standard £1 bet on the same driver at each of the previous six Grand Prix and then applied the following multipliers; Monaco 16.7%, Canada 33.3%, Britain 50%, Germany 66.7%, Hungary 83.3% and Belgium 100%.
