Malaysian Grand Prix
All good things must come to an end, and the sun’s setting on Sepang International Circuit and the Malaysian Grand Prix.
The lack of support from the locals may have forced the Malaysian government to fold out of the Formula 1 schedule, but any live betting fan worth his salt knows the track paved the way to exciting betting odds.
The risk taken by Bernie Ecclestone and the Malaysian government sparked the blossoming of many races that are now sports betting festivals. China, Singapore, Bahrain, Abu Dhabi and many other locations wouldn’t have opened their doors to Formula 1 racing if it weren’t for this track.
This is why fans should expect a great race for the swansong of the Malaysian Grand Prix!
We head straight at the top where the power struggle between Sebastian Vettel and Lewis Hamilton are starting to slip one way. Vettel had the pole in Singapore but crashed out of the race on the first lap, giving leeway to Lewis Hamilton to win and build a good lead. Momentum is on Hamilton’s side, and bookies give him 1.55 outright odds to win. Vettel is close by with 3.30.
Valtteri Bottas (5.50) and Kimi Raikkonen (12.00) will also be competing for the top spot, given how the two always perform well in races. However, there’s a broadcast of heavy rain for Malaysia on the weekend. This means Daniel Ricciardo and Max Verstappen (both at 19.00 each) are set to make some strong plays for first should the race be started on intermediate tires.
Sepang is known for pushing drivers and machines to the limit, so teams with lesser machines might not be able to put up much of a fight. However, Sergio Perez, Esteban Ocon and Fernando Alonso are some of the names you can count on to make daring driving manoeuvres during the race.
This might be the final time we will see the beautiful track of Sepang being raced by Formula 1 cars, so we better make the most of it. I know the drivers will push to get the victory; all that’s left to do is sit back and enjoy the spectacle.
