Lewis Hamilton Turkish Grand Prix Odds
The Lewis Hamilton Turkish Grand Prix odds are reasonably generous quoting him at 6/1 to win the race as the Formula One season continues this Sunday in Istanbul, Turkey. The expectation however is that yet again Ferrari will be the dominant force and will follow up their success’s of the last four GP’s.
Hamilton and his Mclaren Mercedes, who came so close to winning the World Title last year, looks likely to be held again here by the superior Ferrari’s and he will do well to repeat his third place success from the Spanish Grand Prix at the end of last month. He will certainly not want a repeat of his misfortune in last season’s race, where a shredded tyre cost him 3rd place – he finally finished 5th.
As valuable as the 3rd place points were, Hamilton is already 9 points adrift of Championship leader and reigning World Champion, Kimi Raikkonen. This gap will widen again if the Ferrari team secure another one-two finish.
For good reason, Raikkonen is in confident mood, and fully expects to secure his third win in the last five starts and give Ferrari four consecutive victories. Ferrari liken the Istanbul track to that of Sepang in Malaysia and Sakhir in Bahraim. They performed well on those tracks and it explains their bullish mood this week.

Raikonen’s team mate, Brazilian, Felipe Massa has won the Turkish Grand Prix for the last two seasons and is also in confident mood ahead of the race. He would love to bridge the 11 point gap that exists between him and his team mate.
Current Odds have Raikkonen 10/11, Massa 2/1, Hamilton 6/1, Kubica 14/1 and Alonso 25/1.
