Banking Formula 1 bets on Malaysian Grand Prix and 2011 season revealed

As the second race of the 2011 Formula 1 betting season approaches, there is one key question: Will Sebastian Vettel dominate the Malaysian Grand Prix like he did in Australia?

JackpotFinder-reviewed online sportsbooks bet365 and Unibet believe he will, with short odds on the defending champion.

Vettel is nearly odds-on the favorite in Malaysian Grand Prix betting with an 11/10 line at both bet365 and Unibet. And the Red Bull driver impressed the online sportsbooks so much that his odds in bet365’s “Formula 1 – To Win Outright” proposition bet have dropped from 9/4 two weeks ago to an incredible 5/6.

The odds on the top 10 drivers in the Formula 1 Malaysian Grand Prix are as follows.

For the field, the most important factor to watch will be the technology in the car of Vettel’s Red Bull teammate Mark Webber. Webber’s crew is still attempting to integrate the KERS power boost system which he drove without in Australia. Some observers believe that, should Webber get the system installed, the advantage given him on straightforward bits of the Malaysian course could put him over the top. (No wonder Red Bull is getting a line of just 1.50 in Unibet’s “Winning Constructor” proposition bet.)

Those looking for a dark horse in the Malaysian Grand Prix will naturally be thinking about wagering on Vitaly Petrov, who just turned in the most outstanding performance in what will certainly be a long and successful career on the circuit. He’s getting 30/1 and 40/1 odds, respectively, at Unibet and bet365, but Unibet’s “Points Classification” prop bet has a seemingly generous 1.40 line on Petrov finishing in the top 10 finishers.
