Canadian GP Betting Odds: Which Driver Has the Best Odds for Winning the Race?

Read ahead to know more the best betting odds for the Canadian Grand Prix on Sunday

The qualifying session for the Canadian Grand Prix came to an end of Saturday. This time around, McLarens are no longer the fastest cars on the grid. Instead, the front row was captured by George Russell and Max Verstappen. The circuit is going to host the final race on Sunday, June 15.

Canada’s home hero is already at a disadvantage starting from P18 on the grid. Lance Stroll was the first driver to bring points for Aston Martin but he may not be able to do so in Canada. There were also many penalties and infringements during the qualifying session. The Canadian Grand Prix is going to be an interesting race due to the starting order of the drivers. The championship leaders are starting the race at a disadvantage in Montreal.

Canadian GP Predictions: A Race Worth Watching

George Russell and Max Verstappen are in a lot of hot water from the previous race. Russell is already taking jibes at Verstappen this weekend. As the four-time champion has already declared, Verstappen will not change his racing style.

A turn-1 incident might play out on the cards with a duo this aggressive. McLaren may only get podium with one of their cars weekend. Other than that, the top-10 will remain unchanged. The drivers in the top-10 are already much faster than the rest of the grid. Franco Colapinto has a chance to secure himself his first points. The five-race contract he has with Alpine is ending soon. His boss isn’t really happy with his performance.

Russell's sixth career pole 🙌
Verstappen's fifth front row of the year 👏

Our Pick to Win the Canadian Grand Prix

George Russell is our pick for winning the Canadian Grand Prix. Russell is in top form this weekend. He was able to beat the McLarens by a long shot in the qualifying session. Picking up from where he left off on Saturday, Russell will aim to utilise his medium tyres.

Mighty in Montreal 💪

Unlike other drivers, Russell is the fastest on medium compound. This gives the opportunity to create an early advantage and gap to drivers behind him. Max Verstappen may end up getting himself a podium but a race ban is still on cards for him.
