Betting Tips for Mexico Grand Prix 2024

[Blackjax]

 

It's race day and we have the 20th race of the season in Mexico. With 4 races to go after Mexico GP the 3 way battle for the Drivers as well as the Constructors championship is still open. Max Verstappen leads the fight for Drivers Championship with Lando Norris and Charles Leclerc following him. McLaren seems to be well set for their Constructors title but a late lunge from Ferrari and Red Bull can disrupt their plans.

The race weekend started on Friday where George Russell was fastest during FP 1 followed by Carlos Sainz (Ferrari) and Yuki Tsunoda (Red Bull). In FP2 Carlos Sainz was the fastest and he was followed by Oscar Piastri in Mclaren and Yuki Tsunoda (Red Bull) second and third places respectively. FP 3 saw McLaren seeing some pace and both their cars in top 2 followed by Carlos Sainz in P3. During qualifying Sainz managed to maintain good pace over a lap and scored P1. He was followed by championship leader Max Verstappen and Verstappen's closest rival Lando Norris in P3.  Even though Carlos Sainz qualified P1 bookies are choosing him second favorite to win the race with odds of 1.28 in his favour and Lando Norris is their current top choice with odds of 1.25. Max Verstappen has odds of 1.44. Charles Leclerc has had the fastest race pace so he can be a great bet to win the race and the odds in his favor are 1.5. Apart from these 4, I don't see anyone else winning the race.

Sergio Perez who starts from P18 has a good chance of finishing in top 6 and he has odds of 4.5 in his favour. Oscar Piastri can also finish in the top 6 even though he starts from P17 and the odds for this to happen are 1.72.

Mexico is really hot at this time of the year and we are going to see a few retirements and crashes and this will lead to safety cars. The odds for more than 1.5 safety cars is at 3.00 and that is a great bet to make. If you want bigger odds regarding safety cars then I see a chance of a Red Flag and this event will give you a return of $5 on a bet of $1.
