The 2026 F1 Drivers' Championship odds went through Barcelona over the weekend, and the result was a monumental victory for Lewis Hamilton and Ferrari.

Still, Kimi Antonelli had won five of six races before that, and he continues to hold a 41-point gap at the top of the Drivers' Standings. After his Barcelona win, Hamilton jumped George Russell for second place. 

Understandably, the 2026 Constructors' Championship odds still go through the Silver Arrows, with Ferrari and McLaren giving chase. Let's take a look at the latest Formula 1 odds to win the Drivers' and Constructors' Championships.

Odds to win Drivers' Championship at Kalshi

Drivers' Championship odds movement

  • Lewis Hamilton jumped from sixth to third in the odds with his price shifting from 40/1 to +400 after the win

Drivers' Championship favorites

Mercedes  Kimi Antonelli (-250)

Kimi Antonelli was an early betting favorite despite having never won an F1 race before. He broke his maiden in the Chinese GP, then promptly doubled up in the Japanese GP to practically draw even in the betting with his Mercedes teammate. 

Antonelli caught and passed Russell in the odds following his third straight victory in Miami and extended that lead after winning in Montreal and Monaco.

Mercedes  George Russell (+350)

George Russell was stamped as the one to beat by bettors and oddsmakers before the year began, as Mercedes looked to have the most promising cars in preseason testing.

A victory in the season-opening Qatar GP helped solidify that status, but it's been all downhill (relatively speaking) since.

F1 Constructors' Championship odds

Team bet365
Mercedes Mercedes -900
Ferrari Ferrari +700
McLaren McLaren +1600
Red Bull Red Bull +6600

Odds as of 6-15.
