Formula 1 Betting By Numbers
In the run-up to Spa, I've analysed the statistics to
produce the latest form guide charts showing the most profitable
formula 1 bets,
and also the safest bets, so far this season.Below you can find the charts for the 'Winning Driver' betting market and over the next few days I'll also be analysing a few other betting markets such as Podium Finish, Top Ten Finish, etc.
As usual I've produced two form charts; the first weighted in favour of recent races (to take into account the fact that recent form obviously has more relevance to forthcoming 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 | 6.17 | 2 |
| Lewis Hamilton | 4.00 | 1 |
| Sebastian Vettel | 0.78 | 2 |
| Fernando Alonso | -2.88 | 1 |
| 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; Spain 16.7%, Monaco 33.3%, Canada 50%, Britain 66.7%, Germany 83.3% and Hungary 100%.
