F1 returns for the third week of the triple header as the grid heads to Saudi Arabia for the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix at the Jeddah Corniche Circuit. We will take a look at this week’s race from a betting angle and offer up a couple of suggested bets for your consideration.
PREVIOUS RACE – BAHRAIN GP
Last week’s race saw a brilliant drive from Oscar Piastri as he defended his lead from the start of the race. George Russell grabbed yet another podium as he finished second while Lando Norris finished in the other podium spot.
CHAMPIONSHIP UPDATE
After last week’s win from Oscar Piastri, the bookies now have both Norris (77 points) and Piastri (74 points) at 2.00 joint favourites to win the Drivers Championship. Verstappen (69 points) is currently trading at 13.00 while George Russell (63 points) is trading at 21.00.

VERDICT
It seem as if we have reached a stage in the season where it is McLaren v McLaren as Piastri and Norris look to get as many wins as they can early on. Piastri has the momentum at the moment, coming off the back of a win last week and being the only driver with two wins this season. He also managed to have a higher finish than Norris at last year’s Saudi Arabian GP and I see him winning the race come Sunday.
Suggested Bet: Oscar Piastri to win at 2.40.

Gasly had his best drive of the season so far last week as he finished seventh and secured his first points of the season. He is an experienced driver having been in F1 for a number of years now and also a race winner. Gasly will look to continue his momentum from last week and aim to secure points yet again and with his experience I can see him doing that.
Suggested Bet: Points finish, Pierre Gasly at 2.10.
