Formula One odds short on a Ferrari success

Ferrari supporters are looking forward to the Chinese Grand Prix, where they hope their team can continue an excellent record and confirm their short Formula One odds for winning.

Ferrari have returned winning Formula One bets in three out of four races in Shanghai since the race was founded in 2004.

Rubens Barrichello, Michael Schumacher and Kimi Raikkonen have taken the chequered flag driving Ferraris, with Fernando Alonso’s 2005 win for Renault the only time another team’s driver has stood on top of the rostrum.

Previous success points to Alonso as wise Formula One bet

The Shanghai International Circuit is sure to produce excitement in Formula One betting as it always produces a top quality race.

Those looking to previous races as a guide to what will happen on October 19 would do well to consider Alonso in Formula One odds, who has an excellent record in China and could be a value Formula One bet again.

The first race in 2004 was the only time he has not registered a top-three finish. In addition he has been on pole twice and set the fastest lap in 2006, so his Formula One odds will reflect that success.

Raikkonen sure to find support in Formula One betting

Likewise, Raikkonen could be a driver to follow in Formula One betting as his victory last year was not the first success he has had at the circuit. In the inaugural race he came third behind Barrichello, while he set the fastest lap the following year en route to finishing second to Alonso.

Lewis Hamilton is sure of plenty of backing in Formula One betting, but he will go to Shanghai hoping for better luck than he encountered last year. Qualifying on pole, he led for 23 laps but later suffered the first retirement of his career.

Those seeking an interesting outsider for a Formula One bet on a podium finish may consider Toro Rosso driver Sebastian Vettel, who was fourth last year.
