Formula One Betting - The Basics
Formula One betting is the mainstay of Centrebet's motor racing odds service. The season provides 18 Formula One betting opportunities from March through to October.
Formula One is a religion to millions of petrol heads, so it makes sense that one of the world's leading online sports bookmakers would bend over backwards to provide a complete coverage.
Formula One Betting - Bet Types
Centrebet's list of Formula One betting options is longer than the Silverstone circuit. You can bet on the F1 Drivers Championship and the Constructors Championship until the respective competitions are done and dusted.
Formula One Grand Prix betting gets bigger and better every year, with bookmakers such as Centrebet dreaming up more things on which to bet. Gone are the days when bookmakers did not offer anything more than prices on the race winner.
Now you can bet on everything from qualifying times (for example, Fernando Alonso to be the Belgian Grand Prix pole sitter) to intra-team rivalries (for example, Juan Pablo Montoya to score more championship points than Kimi Raikkonen at Suzuka in Japan). Centrebet has additional Formula One information for punters, including team and driver combinations.
Other Formula 1 sports betting odds offered by Centrebet often also include podium finishers, top 8 finishes, and a mix of head-to-heads.
