Formula One Singapore Grand Prix Betting 2011
When a lot of people think about Formula One, Singapore is not the first track that will spring into their mind. Silverstone, Monza and Monaco maybe but Singapore is an extremely challenging race that often gets pushed to the back despite the fact it is one of the most entertaining races to watch.
Formula One Singapore Grand Prix betting 2011 is not going to have the best odds in the world available to punters. Sebastian Vettel may well have driven off over the horizon by this point which makes Lewis Hamilton's chances of catching him look bleak.
What Formula One Singapore Grand Prix betting 2011 will offer is a little bit of reward to any driver who is willing to drive a bit like Ayrton Senna and take a few mad risks over the course of the race.
The Singapore Grand Prix
The Singapore Grand Prix is a race of 61 laps over a track which is 5.073 kilometres in length. This includes a staggering 23 different corners, turns or points of interest that the drivers have to pay close attention to if they want to end up over the finish line and not sitting in the gravel somewhere on the track.
The Singapore Grand Prix also includes one of the most dangerous pit lanes in F1. This is because the pit lane ejects riders out right at the first corners. Any car coming down the home straight could easily crash into a car coming slowly out of the pit lane hence the difficulty of this point.
Drivers and Constructors Betting
The drivers and constructors betting markets will have taken a strong shape by the start of this race. The strongest drivers and engineers would have played their part in getting into the top position and someone like Vettel or Hamilton could easily have pulled away.
There may be hardly any value what so ever in backing a driver or a constructor to win their title based on the result of this race. The much better betting option with the Singapore Grand Prix is to focus on the drivers who could get into the top five or the markets that don't include the drivers who have sucked away all of the value.
Marina Bay Street Circuit
The Marina Bay Street Circuit is very difficult and there are a few points of interest that drivers and spectators alike will have to pay attention to. Turn three of the Marina Bay Street Circuit is arguably the most difficult part of the course because it is a 75 degree turn which is difficult at any point of a race.
Turn ten of the Marina Bay Street Circuit is the start of a chicane which is very deceptive. The common thinking with chicanes is that they can be tackled at high speed but the angles of this chicane are slightly more extreme and it follows a straight which means a driver could easily go off.
Turn 13 of the Marina Bay Street Circuit starts the final sector of the track and is almost an exact replica of turn three. The problem here is that the ground is not level in the run up to the corner which can be deceptive for drivers as they approach.
