After his third victory in a row Max Verstappen is 'the man to beat'. This is also evident from the figures from betting agencies, where the current championship leader is the big favourite for victory at Silverstone.
Verstappen heavily favoured by bookmakers
The Silverstone circuit may have been favourable to Mercedes in recent years, but the bookies are not convinced that Lewis Hamilton can make a big step, NBC Sports reports.
As things stand there is not much money to be made from a bet on Verstappen. At American betting shops the odds are -140, meaning that per dollar invested you can win around seventy cents. The next favourite is Lewis Hamilton with odds of +165. This means you can win $1.65 on top of each dollar deposited.
For those who dare to take a chance, Valtteri Bottas might be a profitable option: The odds are +1200, which means twelve times your stake.
