Finding Value in Red Bull’s Odds

The Red Bull Racing duo of Verstappen and Perez has been simply dominant so far this season. Verstappen has won three of the first five races of the season, while “Checo” took home the checkered flag in the other two races and trails the defending champion in the Standings by just 14 points.

While his short odds to win Sunday’s race may discourage sports bettors from backing Verstappen, there is plenty of value to be found among race props involving the champ, especially considering his history at this event. In addition to claiming victory in the past two editions of this race, Verstappen also claimed both the pole and the fastest lap a year ago. And considering his recent pace, the 25-year-old Dutchman should not be overlooked as a +100 wager to win and drive the fastest lap once again.

With four top-two finishes so far this season, Checo has proved that he is a legitimate challenger for this year’s F1 title and should be on every sports bettors ticket as a +330 bet to earn his third win of the season on Sunday in Ebola.

Capturing the top of the podium may be too much to ask, but if Alonso and his Aston Martin teammate Lance Stroll can avoid some of the technical and tactical issues that have plagued them at times this season, they are worth backing as a +165 bet to produce their third double top six finish of the season.
