Will Oct. 9, 2022 be the day Max Verstappen becomes Formula 1 world champion for the second time in his career? The chances are good, but after the failed race weekend in Singapore, Red Bull Racing has become very cautious. In both free practice, qualifying and the Grand Prix, Verstappen did not fare well and that will dent his confidence heading into the next race. In any case, the Dutchman is the clear favourite for the overall victory. We will update the odds for the overall winner and the driver who takes pole position after each session.
Verstappen's lead prior to the race in Japan over closest rival Charles Leclerc is 104 points. Teammate Sergio Perez follows in third place at a deficit of 106 points. If the Dutchman wants to decide the season in Japan and stay in control, he must win the race and set the fastest race lap.
Despite the mediocre weekend in Singapore, there is full confidence in a good finish in Japan. The betting shops are predicting a win for Verstappen and see Leclerc as the only major challenger next weekend. The odds clearly show that. A win for Verstappen will get you 1.50 times your bet , a win for Leclerc will get you an odd of 4.00 and the rest of the field of competitors are miles behind. As for qualifying, expect a neck-and-neck race between Verstappen and Leclerc.
Tip: The odd for a Verstappen victory in Japan is currently low. Do not bet until after the free practice sessions. Verstappen almost never sets the fastest time this season and thus the odd rises toward the race on Sunday.
