Although the 2026 F1 Drivers' Championship odds are effectively Kimi Antonelli's race to lose, Max Verstappen followed up his first win of the year with another victory in Singapore. While it was certainly the summer of Kimi, it's shaping up to be a strong fall season for the generation before him.
Lewis Hamilton and George Russell were the only others remaining on the board following Bahrain, but it remains just Antonelli and Verstappen now.
Meanwhile, the 2026 Constructors' Championship odds still favor the Silver Arrows, led by Antonelli and Russell, as they continue to pull away. Their top two drivers have won 11 of the 17 races this year, with Antonelli securing a riduculous 15 Top-5 finishes.
Ferrari, a clear second-favorite not long ago, is still on the board but effectively out of the race.
Let's take a look at the latest Formula 1 odds to win the Drivers' and Constructors' Championships.

Drivers' Championship favorite
Kimi Antonelli (98%)
Kimi Antonelli was an early betting favorite despite the 20-year-old having never won an F1 race prior to this year.
He won his maiden title in Shanghai, then came out on top at the Japanese GP to draw near-even in odds with Russell.
Antonelli caught and passed his Mercedes teammate in Miami, following his third straight victory, and extended that lead after winning in Montreal and Monaco.
He's maintained this position ever since, and it would take an absolute miracle for anyone to catch him at this point in the season. He's potentially one race away from locking it up.
