[1837]

was going to do a write up for the season next week but OLY has just released their qualifying match ups lines !!!! They will be up until feb28 so until they start to run In Melboune. Then they will put them down and we will see some new odds. It is so early that i haven't checked anything yet! If i see some value, i'll be back soon!

 

[djv]

Soon we start. I hope no one has completely lost hee butts in BB. Now is time to make some dow. 1837 let me be first to say nice job. I know it will be harder then last year. So thanks in advance. I would not have a chance in hell with out your work.
MR. Down under thanks for all your info mate.

New Guy!!

New Guy!!

Hello,

I am Gareth from Wales in the United Kingdom. I will be visiting this forum regularly throughout the F1 season. Anyhow I have just seen a quote of 4/6 on Ferrari to win Constructors Championship.

All those who think this is a marvelous opportunity??

Thoughts would be appreciated

 

[TIME TO MAKE $$$]

I myself would like to say hello to all those regular members in here. I am new here as I frequent the NHL forum, but hope to contribute to this forum and just wanted to sat to 1837 and all others nice work.

I heard this is a $$ making forum!!!

 

[hoss]

Some early views from the Uk on the start of the F1 season. I apologise in advance if some of the prices are inaccessible to some of you, I haven't quite got my head round this multi-continental stuff yet (what's a wheel bet?! ):shrug: Anyway these are some of the moves for me views/input much appreciated!
Firstly, Eurobet.com (Coral Racing from UK) have a match bet Jordan (8/11) vs Renault (evens) which looks to me to be totally the wrong favourite. All the vibes for Renault seem to be good- the car improved last backend, testing has been decent, and they have 2 capable drivers in Trulli and Button, Jordan haven't made much progress over the winter + have one potentially duff driver (Sato). The spread betting firms over here have Renault as 15 point favourites over the season, which for comparatively low scoring teams is a big gap! It looks nailed on to me!

Secondly, Bet365 have a qualifying match bet Webber @8/13 to beat Yoong, which on evidence seen so far looks like buying money - he's been over a second faster in some tests!

Third + last, How many cars do you reckon will finish? Over the last 7 years, all at Melbourne + all first race of championship, the number of finishers has been (in reverse order) 14/22, 10/22, 8/22, 9/22, 10/22, 11/20, 8/24. Several firms have issued prices on the number that finish + all seem to have based prices (or copied each other) on season long stats not 1st race of season when there's a lot of new kit out there + some over-eager drivers!
I've seen one price of 7/4 that 10 or less cars finish, which looks good given that it 's happened in 5 of the last 7 years! Also Bet365 quote 10/1 that 5 or more teams don't get a single car to finish (finish = classified for the purposes of all these bets), which again looks value as its happened twice in the last seven.

All views appreciated, are the cars more reliable now or was last year a fluke - if I haven't made sense please shout + I'll try + qualify!

all the best to all + let's stick it to 'em!
