2011 Canadian Grand Prix Betting Preview

As we reach the mid stages of the Grand Prix calendar the teams will off to Canada for the Canadian Grand Prix at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve.

Red Bull continue to push home their advantage and sit comfortably adrift at the top of the constructors championship. Whilst Webber has struggled somewhat, Vettel just goes from strength to strength and looks unstoppable right now. He is currently available at 11/8 and it’s tough to look further than the German is a firm favourite to rack up another win in Canada. Team mate Webber can be had at a slightly more appealing 13/2. Whether Webber can dislodge his team mate is doubtful, but with Formula One, anything can happen come race day.

McLaren currently pose Red Bull’s nearest threat and Lewis Hamilton is available at 9/4. The Britton has been there or thereabouts in pretty much all races in 2011. It’s  been widely reported that McLaren have a host of new features available for Canada on their 2011 car. The Milton Keynes based team need to start to rally this year if they are to catch the might of the Red Bull’s. Jenson Button has had a quiet start to the season and if he is wanting to remain with a shot at his second title will need to pull something out of the bag this weekend. Button is available at 15/2.

Ferrari continue to improve this season and their charge will be lead in the form of Fernando Alonso. The Spaniard is without a victory in 2011 but is fond of the Candian track. The car is likely going to be suited to the long circuit and many tip a good weekend for the Italian outfit. Alonso can be picked up at 13/2 whilst teammate Massa lies at 50/1 and provides a really good value each way bet.

It’s unlikely the rest of the field are going to feature too much at the top of the leader board, but our value bet for the race goes to Petrov at 80/1 who has already amassed two podiums this year. An each way bet looks solid value.
