Max Verstappen wasn't nearly as dominant in 2024 as he was in 2023, but it didn't matter as he won his fourth straight F1 Drivers' Championship.
With underachieving Red Bull teammate Sergio Perez being replaced by Liam Lawson, Verstappen is currently looking up at Lando Norris in this race. However, "Mad Max" showed that he could do just fine as a one-man band last year.
Here are the latest F1 odds.

2025 F1 Drivers' Championship favorites
Lando Norris (+220)
Lando Norris won four times in 2024, but the top-notch performances were not there on a consistent enough basis for the young McLaren driver.
Still, last season has to viewed as a rousing success, buoyed by McLaren's first Constructor's Championship since 1998. If he takes another step forward in 2025, it would not be shocking to see him loosen the grip of "Mad Max" on the top of the standings.
Max Verstappen (+225)
To be the man, you've got to beat the man, and while 2024 was more of a struggle for Max Verstappen than last year, he's still a logical contender to make it five straight championships.
Verstappen finished 2024 strong and will look to build on that momentum next season.
Charles Leclerc (+400)
Charles Leclerc will have a new teammate in Lewis Hamilton to work with in 2025 after visiting Victory Lane three times in 2024.
Leclerc was a paragon of consistency down the stretch last year, tallying 12 straight Top 5s for Ferrari.

How to bet on F1 futures odds
The most popular way to bet Formula One futures is by simply picking the winner of the F1 World Drivers' Championship. The champion is crowned via a points system based on the final race results of each drive. While the winner is not officially given the title until the final race of the season they can secure the championship with races remaining on the schedule.
Another F1 futures bet is the World Constructors' Championship which is awarded to the constructor (the team that builds the components of the car) who accumulates the most points at the end of the season. In 63 seasons, only 11 times has the winning constructor not been on the same team as the winner of the World Drivers' Championship.
F1 futures odds will usually look like this:
- Lando Norris +1,200
This means that on a $100 bet, you'll stand to profit $1,200 if Norris wins the Drivers' Championship. If it's close to the end of the season or one driver is simply that dominant, you might see a minus sign (-) ahead of their odds.
- Lewis Hamilton -175
This means that you would need to bet $175 to win $100 on Hamilton winning the Drivers' Championship.
