    The only thing I want out of this year is Alonso on top of a podium.

    I'd bet on checo to win but max to still make podium, almost certainly top 5 if car is fine.

    Max is going to go full Tony Kanaan and pass 11 cars by the time he rounds the hairpin at the far end.

    Redbull is 6-7 tenths per lap ahead of everyone and they’ve also managed to get tire degradation less than their main rivals.

    if it’s not an RB 1-2 it’ll be mechanical/SC reasons.

    I’m not sure Max will be able to catch Checo if it’s a clean race, but everyone else is fair game

    He’s a very steady pair of hands. Only lost from pole last time out due to SC luck.

    How many times has he gotten a terrible start at lights out or safety car release? Yeah he got fucked over last year but I think nando will have him within the first few. If max repeat his spa first lap, he’ll win by 10 seconds

    I don't think those numbers were updated after after qualifying. This is current numbers. No way Checo was +450 starting on pole.

    Agree with this. I think Fernando has a good start and leads the first few laps. Checo loses a bit of time in the process, and Max just picks people off one by one.

    He's been pretty honest the last 2 years. Everyone accused him of sandbagging when he was just honest about them being ass. :idk: Idk maybe I'm being overly optimistic bc I want someone to challenge RB.

    Aero upgrades notwithstanding, Merc ensuring a reliable engine guarantees them at least 3rd in constructors alone.

    RB replaced Max's gearbox (again)...betting odds moving around reflecting odds that Max gets torpedoed in turn 1 or his engine explodes

    Their odds are the softest in the US though so they're worth having. They're the only sports book that I think the average Joe could beat with a little effort.

    But if you win too much they'll ban you in days
