The Challenge: A Race to Profitability
In the high-stakes world of Formula 1 betting, our tipsters are not just competing against the bookmakers; they are in a race against each other. Each Grand Prix weekend, they meticulously select their bets, adhering to the sole rule of the challenge: all bet selections must boast odds of over 1.5. This ensures a balanced playing field, encouraging strategic betting while maintaining an element of risk and excitement.
Last Race Recap: A Mixed Bag of Results
The last race proved to be a challenging one for our tipsters. Stephen faced a setback, ending the race with a -10 point loss. Luke also found himself in the red, albeit with a smaller loss of -2.2 points. Ant, on the other hand, managed to buck the trend, securing a slight profit of +0.20 points.

As we gear up for the Mexico GP, let’s take a look at the overall season standings:
- Stephen: -19.73 points
- Luke: -60.08 points
- Ant: -48.48 points
The road to profitability is a marathon, not a sprint, and our tipsters are well aware that the season is far from over. With several races still to go, there is ample opportunity for a comeback, and the Mexico GP could very well be a turning point in the challenge.

The Mexico GP: A Unique Challenge
The Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez, located over 2,200 meters above sea level, presents a unique challenge for both drivers and teams, with the thin air affecting aerodynamics and engine performance.

Expert F1 Betting Tips: What to Expect
As the weekend approaches, stay tuned for the expert F1 betting tips from Stephen, Luke, and Ant. They will be sharing their predictions, insights, and top picks, helping you navigate the odds and place your bets with confidence.
Stephen’s selections:
First driver to make a pit stop – George Russell – Odds 21.0 – 1.5 points
“We know how tight the first few corners can be in Mexico and we also know Russell isn’t a man to back out of a move! Due to this I feel he could get in some trouble and need to pit end of lap 1”
Constructor to retire first – AlphaTauri – Odds 8.5 – 2 points
“Again due to the first few corners I feel someone will be out on lap 1 and I think if we do get the Perez news of him retiring all eyes will be on both AlphaTauri drivers which could force them into a little too aggressive move”
Fastest Team Pitstop – Ferrari – Odds 5.5 – 2 points
“I feel that McLaren has been doing so well with this and the expectation is on Red Bull but I feel with Ferrari will step up and help their drivers this weekend”
Points finish – Lance Stroll – Odds 2.25 – 4.5 points
“Stroll has the same pace as Lando in clean air last week with the upgrades and I feel Aston Martin should have a good weekend”
Luke’s selections:
Fastest in Practice 1 – Sergio Perez – 10.0 – 3 Points
“I feel that this is one of the only chances Perez has to be on top of the charts as he will try to go fastest in FP1 for the fans and one Verstappen might not care about so much”
Fastest Team Pitstop – Red Bull – 2.0 – 3 Points
“I’m going to regret this as McLaren are doing a stellar job atm but I think Perez will have a quick stop in the race”
Both cars points finish – Alpine – 2.75 – 3 Points
“I feel that I really got unlucky with this with Ocon retiring early as both cars had the pace to finish in the points and still think this might come in”
Driver to retire first – Valtteri Bottas – 21.0 – 1 Point
“Taking a snipe here to try and get this one right as it’s an easy way to get some points on the board here to recover some of my bad weeks”
Ant’s selections:
Q1 Winning Margin – Between 0.1 and 0.25 seconds inclusive – 2.87 – 3 Points
“A bet I always love. Always value in this, even when it breaks my heart by just missing out”
Fastest in Practice 1 – Sergio Perez – 9.50 – 2 Points
“Home race, so maybe a little bit of joy in red bull letting him at least have something to cheer about with his fans. But then again, maybe not. It’s worth a punt though”
Driver to Retire First – Pierre Gasly – 26.0 – 2 Points
“Now we come to Anthony chasing his losses. This is a shot in the dark and nothing else (and of course it will be his teammate Ocon who is first to retire now)”
Top 2 Finish – George Russell – 9.0 – 3 Points
“he had a bad time of it in the US Grand Prix. The car is fast and he has something to prove”
