Max Verstappen is now as short as 1.16 in the F1 Championship winner odds after extending his lead at the top of the table at the Canadian Grand Prix. The title holder moved 46 points clear of Sergio Perez with victory in Montreal, where his Red Bull teammate failed to finish.
Following a miserable run of results, it is rated a case of now or never for Charles Leclerc in our Canadian Grand Prix predictions. The Ferrari driver has failed to finish two of the last three races and more blundering over tactics saw him drop from first to fourth in Monaco.
Sergio Perez sprang a surprise when successful in Monaco but it would not be a major upset to see him follow up in Azerbaijan. The Mexican previously had to be restrained from challenging Red Bull team-mate Max Verstappen for top honours in Barcelona.

Red Bull imploded late on in Bahrain but we’re tipping them to bounce straight back in our Saudi Arabia Grand Prix predictions. Max Verstappen had shown enough to remain favourite in the drivers’ championship before a mechanical failure prompted his retirement.
Four months after an incredible end to the 2021 F1 season, we’re ready to go again with our 2022 Bahrain Grand Prix predictions. Rule changes, drivers switching camps and testing results all have to be taken into account at this time of year, but the big two drivers remain the same.
For the first time in three years there will be a Canadian Grand Prix, which is scheduled to take place on June 19 2022 at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve in Montreal. Both the 2020 and 2021 races were cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic, but normality is now returning to the Formula One calendar.
