^I would say if there is anyone that could ever beat Hamilton in this race which I would assume will not happen at all and why he is at 1.74ish odds, would be verstappen, we have seen him taking a race out of Hamilton already and so why wouldn't he do it again? Ferrari is not doing all that well, neither does Leclerc because of car quality issue, Mercedes is just way better right now at this than any other team.

You have to realize F1 is a money losing thing for most of these teams, owners have to pour cash into it, obviously you can sell and make a big buck but it is mostly tied to car manufacturers, so I guess it is just a hobby and a show off from the companies and not a profiting thing. Hence why many teams are not as good as Mercedes right now, I still wager on Hamilton because he is good but also Mercedes is just much better.
