Canadian Grand Prix Betting: Lewis Hamilton on Pole and Favourite for Third Win

Lewis Hamilton stormed to his first pole position of the season in Montreal this week, thus confirming that he is the form driver ahead of this week’s Canadian Grand Prix in Montreal. His outstanding drive has cost him the burden of favouritism in the betting for the race this week, where he is quoted at around 11/10 to win the race for the third successive time but he can still be backed with Bet365 at 5/4.

For the Red Bull team it was close but not close enough as their two drivers, Mark Webber and Sebastian Vettel could only manage second and third respectively, meaning that for the first time this season they have not occupied pole position. Nonetheless they are both seriously fancied to win the race and are quoted at 9/4 and 4/1 by bet 365.

Hamilton’s team mate and reigning world champion, Jenson Button had to ‘pull out the stops’ on his final qualifying lap to put himself into contention after an otherwise miserable qualifying session. Button in the end managed to get himself on to fifth place on the grid but will need to drive with much more veuve if he is to get on to the podium. Button in fact is 12/1 to win the race and 11/8 to be on the podium with bet365.

The three principle teams in the constructors championship are all in with a ;big shout’ this week, but it is the Red Bull team with second and third on the grid who are attracting the most betting. McLaren have Hamilton on pole and Button back in fifth, while Ferrari is 4th with Alonso and 6th with Massa.

If Hamilton is disadvantaged in any way it will be that he will have to start the race with the softer tyres, which if he does not change quickly he could suffer as the race protracts. We still think he will win however, he has won here on the last two occasions, his outstanding driving is very much suited to this unique track and we see Hamilton leading the world Championship points table by the time he sees the chequered flag.
