With four races done and dusted already, the 2025 Formula One season is now well underway and this weekend sees attention turn to Saudi Arabia.
It’s been a success story so far for McLaren with three wins out of four. Lando Norris has one win and three podium finishes to his name whilst his teammate Oscar Piastri has two victories under his belt already. As you’d expect, both drivers lead the current betting and are 13/10 with sportsbook CopyBet, while both McLarens to finish on the podium is on offer at 3/10.
Red Bull’s Max Verstappen is regarded as the biggest threat to McLaren’s dominance, with the Dutchman 10/1 for victory. Behind him are Mercedes’ George Russell at 11/1 and Ferrari pair Charles Leclerc (12/1) and Lewis Hamilton (20/1).
Norris, Piastri and Verstappen are the three drivers to have won a race so far this season, with George Russell narrowly beaten into second place last time out in Bahrain. At 10/1, Verstappen will be confident of repeating the victories he’s had on this circuit in both 2022 and 2024. Indeed Red Bull have dominated in Saudi Arabia in recent years with Sergio Perez taking the chequered flag in 2023. Punters who fancy another Red Bull Saudi success can back them at 8/1.
Now racing for Ferrari, Lewis Hamilton enjoyed a victory on this circuit in 2021 but at 20/1 he’s not expected to feature in the final shake-up. Hamilton fans may be more interested in the 8/15 for him to secure a top six finish or the 11/4 CopyBet have on him making the podium.
