In addition, if Vettel has tyre issues as per Korea it might yet prove green.Morris Dancernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6413493203849579481.post-6712044430672378682012-10-27T11:51:11.525+01:002012-10-27T11:51:11.525+01:00Ha, just as well there wasn't more available o...Ha, just as well there wasn't more available on Massa. <br /><br />Webber's still 9.2 on Betfair for the win. Surprisingly long. In Monaco last year Button was 8 from second.<br /><br />Markets haven't really got going. I think the win and podium markets might be tricky, so I might pay more attention to top 6 and points. Article will probably be up in a few hours, depending how the market goes.Morris Dancernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6413493203849579481.post-59472912017951776362012-10-27T11:49:35.630+01:002012-10-27T11:49:35.630+01:00Despite qualifying on the front row, Webber remain...Despite qualifying on the front row, Webber remains priced at 12 (10.4/1 net) with Betfair to win the race.<br /><br />The simple truth is that bookies and punters alike simply don't fancy him - on a detached purely statistical basis he always looks cheap in the betting markets, totally dominated by his team mate, as has been the case over the last 3 seasons.<br /><br />There's no way by bet on him is ever going to get matched while ever Vettel remains on the race track and should he fail to finish for whatever reason, then I would probably have sold my bet on Webber too cheaply.<br /><br />Poor strategy on my part, I should simply have stayed with the straight win at 11.9/1 net, hoping against hope that once in a while such a bet might actually deliver.<br /><br />Peter from PutneyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6413493203849579481.post-90462462132142946972012-10-27T08:46:50.699+01:002012-10-27T08:46:50.699+01:00I've laid (with a few pounds only) Massa to re...I've laid (with a few pounds only) Massa to reach Q3 at 1.5. I think it's roughly evens as to whether he will or not, based on P3, but there was only £8 (so a stake of £4) available, and it's not, therefore a tip.<br /><br />I don't know what to make of your tip. It does seem like stonking value given Red Bull predominance. Hmm. Maybe I'll put some on. That said, Webber just doesn't feel like a winner, having been eclipsed, as have all othes, by Vettel in recent times.
