TBH, since william hill aren’t offering odds on Quali, I’m happy to amend that one to allow post quali betting -so go for it!

[Penfold]

No odds on quali? But how will I lose all my money?

[Bendanarama]

…Betting on Hamilton?

[Penfold]

Tried that one last year… oh how I laughed at McLaren’s fun little breakages/cock ups.

Kimi at 8/1 to win Melbourne is tempting, but then in a strange way so is 50/1 man Maldonado. Hmm, what to do….

[Bendanarama]

I’d be tempted by Maldonado each way, but not a straight win.

[Penfold]

Just laid a few quid each way on Maldonado, admittedly not much chance of him winning in Oz but the odds were too good to resist – the cry of all truly deluded gamblers!

Meanwhile in this game I now have:
Alonso to win championship: £40 at 11/4 (returning £150)
Raikkonen to win in Melbourne: £5 at 9/1 (returning £50)

[Penfold]

And I’ll add…

Hamilton to be fastest qualifier: £5 at 7/1 (returning £40)

[Laurence]

Hehe – Marussia being the fastest qualifying constructor – 1000/1. No surprises there!

[Alex green]

£10 e/w on webber 8/1 potential winnigs £116 for the win or £26 for top three
leaves me with £60 in the pot

[Penfold]

Bets total £50 and winnings total £50. So I’m back to £100 in the kitty and with the Alonso Championship bet still riding.

Alonso to win championship: £40 at 11/4 (returning £150)
Raikkonen to win in Melbourne: £5 at 9/1 (returning £50)
Hamilton to be fastest qualifier: £5 at 7/1 (returning £40)

Most likely it’s all downhill from here….

[Bendanarama]

And I’ve won… absolutely nothing. You jammy get.

[Kingshark]

Sergio Perez to beat Jenson Button: £10 at 3.00 chance. (£40 return)

Possible, he did seem to have better race pace in Melbourne.

Romain Grosjean to beat Kimi Raikkonen: £10 at 3.50 chance (£45 return)

Lol, dunno what I was smoking.

Probably some Pirelli super-soft burned rubber.

Fernando Alonso to become WDC: £10 at 3.75 chance (£47.50 return)

Plausible.

Scuderia Ferrari to win the WCC: £10 at 3.50 chance (£45 return)

They’re leading the WCC! Can’t believe it! :p

[Penfold]

Right then, time to lose some money:

Grosjean to finish in top 6: £5 at 11/8 (returning £11.87)
Massa to finish on podium: £5 at 4/1 (£25)
Hulkenberg points finish: £5 at 11/10 (£10.50)

As you can probably tell from the modest sums wagered, I have no real conviction in any of these panning out.

[Bendanarama]

I’m having to wait till I get home to put mine on – can’t get on the william hill site from work!

[Bendanarama]

Right, well I’ve got £45 left

Jenson Button to win the title: £10 at 7/1 (£80 return inc stake.)
Button to beat Hamilton over the season: £5 at 4/9 (£14.44 return)
Hamilton to win a race: £10 at 8/11 (£17.27 return)
Ferrari to win the Constructors title: £10 at 7/2 (£45 return)
Jenson Button to win Australian Grand Prix: £10 each way (1-3, £20 stake at 1/5) £62 return.
Either Hamilton or button to win £10 at 8/1, £90 return.
2 safety car periods total: £5 at 7/2, £22.50 return.
£30 remaining in the kitty.
