Formula One Styrian Grand Prix Betting Picks, F1 Preview

107 points

The Styrian Grand Prix is a Formula One motor racing event held at the Red Bull Ring, named after Styria, the province of Austria that the circuit is located in. The first race was run in 2020.

After setting the pace in FP1 at the Red Bull Ring earlier in the day, Verstappen emerged as an early leader in second practice, trading fastest laps on the hard compound tyre with Hamilton in the Mercedes.

Drivers spent the early part of the session with one eye on the weather due to an 80% chance of rain, but managed to complete all of their running on dry tyres with only a few raindrops falling.

Verstappen set the pace for Red Bull on the hard before making the switch to softs slightly later than Hamilton, who was able to go fastest with his first run on the red-ringed compound with a time of 1m05.796s.

Hamilton wound up a second run on the softs and shaved four-tenths of a second off his time, whittling it down to 1m05.335s – only for the lap to be deleted because he breached track limits.

This is set to be an interesting race and if the forecast for rain is correct form may go out the window.

Our Picks:

Race Winner- Lewis Hamilton @13/8

Podium- Max Verstappen @2/7

Podium- Valtteri Bottas @2/1

Points Scorer- Kimi Raikkonen @11/4

 

As the middle leg of an F1 triple-header, the Styrian GP returns to the F1 calendar for a second consecutive year as part of the COVID-19-enforced changes.

After Max Verstappen’s victory at the French GP, as he reeled in and overtook Lewis Hamilton on the penultimate lap, the Red Bull driver leads the standings by 12 points from the defending F1 world champion.
