China Grand Prix Betting
The China Grand Prix betting has the Briton as favourite to win the penultimate race of the season, despite his mistake ridden efforts in last weeks race in Japan. Hamilton has at least made the perfect start by setting the quickest time in the opening practice session. If he can carry on the mommentum, he has every chance of being crowned World Champion this weekend.
Hamilton who started on pole last season in this race, completed the 5.45 mile circuit in 1 min 35.630 seconds and clocked the two fastest times of the session. His main rival, Felipe Massa was second best less than half a second behind. Massa's Ferrari team mate and still current World Champion, Kimi Raikonnen was third while Hamilton's team mate, Heikki Kovalainen was fourth.

The man they probably all fear however is Fernando Alonso, he has won the last two races in brilliant style and while he has no chance of winning the World title, he will be all out to win his third race in a row and upset the Hamilton bid. There is little love lost between the former McLaren team mates.
The good news for British fans is that Hamilton showed no signs of being upset by the ongoing controversies concerning his wild driving. He has been the subject of several complaints made by other drivers at last weeks race.
Provided Hamilton can race error free he should be good enough to win this race and if so he he will go to Brazil for the final race of the season in two weeks time, needing just to finish in the top six to win his first World Championship.
Betting has 6/4 Hamilton, 5/2 Massa, 5/1 Raikonnen, 6/1 Alonso, 14/1 Kovalainen, 20/1 Kubica, 40/1 Vettel, 66/1 bar.
