Webber Good Betting Value to Claim Home Win in Australian F1 Grand Prix

The betting is wide open ahead of this weekend’s Australian Grand Prix at Albert Park, Melbourne, with Red Bull’s Sebastian Vettel currently heading the market with odds of 2/1 from Paddy Power. The same Bookmakers also quote Bahrain Grand Prix winner and two time world champion, Fernando Alonso of Ferrari next best in the market at 5/2, with Britain’s, Lewis Hamilton in his McLaren next best at 11/2.

With drivers from three different teams at the top of the market it demonstrates that the 2010 Formula One season could be one of the most competitive ever with any one of perhaps eight drivers capable of lifting the world championship crown. Those drivers include of course current world champion, Jenson Button, who now drives for McLaren alongside 2008 Champion, Hamilton. These two were the fastest in the second practice session but whether they can capture the vital pole position will not be learned until the final practice takes place on Saturday. They are also the last two winners of the Australian Grand Prix

Australian Grand Prix Odds Comparison

Vettel looked to be in magnificent form in Bahrain, where he clearly was the fastest car on the circuit and was only let down by mechanical failure, which allowed the two Ferrari’s and Hamilton’s McLaren to go past him. If Red Bull can provide a little more reliability then Vettel would be a very worthy favourite as would his team mate, Mark Webber.

Webber of course will be the home favourite and can be expected to be in very determined mood to become the first Australian since Alan Jones in 1980 to achieve a home win. Webber we think is an excellent price in the market at 15/2 with Paddy Power.
