Tyres are blowing all over the place, Hamilton had to do half a lap with a shredded rear.

German Grand Prix!!!
Thank God we have moved on from the disaster of last week. Drivers, and teams p*ssed off at the tyre makers, as well they should be. Hopefully, the tyres hold up, and we have a race that isn't a complete crapshoot.
I'll be on Vettel +185, and Hamilton +400. I'm off of Alonso...he's been fading a little bit, and it might be a good time to see if there's value in fading him in matchups.
Probably some value in grabbing the Mercedes in qualifying. They've been great the last few races in practice, and qualifying...maybe Hamilton or Rosberg snags another pole.

Monster race for me this week...made up for last weeks disaster. Hit the winner, and 3 matchups. Hamilton top 3 was the only loss. Got lucky with the Rosberg over Massa matchup, but take the lucky with the unlucky.
Great race. Kimi and the lotus cars looked fantastic. Still nobody really challenging Vettel from week to week. Could be some value in the Mercedes cars next race since they looked so bad this week. I'm sure they will bounce back.
Hope the camera guy is ok from getting crushed by Webber's tyre...lol. Crazy situation. If you didn't see it, look it up. Worth the watch. Hope everyone made
with me today.

Hungarian Grand Prix...and I'm Hungry to make some
Lot of support for Kimi this weekend as the Lotus' were very strong last race, and last year at this track. Looks like the Mercedes could struggle a little on race day with it being so warm and with the tyre selections this week.
Even though the odds are getting ridiculous, I'm still going to be on Vettel to win at +150. His car is just out of this world strong. Also, this track is difficult to pass on, so if he gets out front I don't see anyone being able to get around him.
Even though I'm not going to be on the Mercedes on race day, I'm putting a little on Hamilton and Rosberg for the pole. I like the odds on them and it seems like they have some magic this year qualifying well. Can't wait for the matchups this weekend...I think their will be some real juicy ones to pounce on.

Hit the pole with Hamilton snagging yet another one. However, Vettel is already -140 to win this race...glad I got him at +150 before qualifying. Loving my Vettel top 3, and Grosjean bets right now...don't see any matchups I like right now, but I'm going to get up early and check out what they have posted. I'm hoping to get some lines I like.
For now I'll take Webber -145 over Massa. I like the value here...it's a tough track to pass on, but Webber has superior equipment to Massa. Red Bull car should be -200 or worse for us Webber supporters. If Webber has a good start he could be even with or even ahead of Ferrari's #2 car at the end of lap 1, and all he has to do is get ahead of a lesser McLaren, and an outclassed Toro Rosso to catch up to Massa.

F1 is back!!! It's only been 3 weeks, but it feels like forever.
Belgian Grand Prix Time
I've read a lot saying that Red Bull was happy for this break, and they are hoping to add speed to their qualifying as they feel that's where they are struggling. If they do start to win the poles...game over folks.
I'll believe that Red Bull will add speed to the qualifying and take Vettel +260 and Hamilton +160 for the pole.
I'll also take Vettel +175 and Hamilton +290 to win. I don't think Kimi has enough to get the win, Webber isn't going to get to the top, and Alonso and Rosberg don't have the equipment to challenge those 2.
I'll also take Rosberg -200 top 6. It's a lot of juice, but while he probably won't challenge for the win, I think he'll be in the top 5 all day.
Ricciardo is taking over for Webber next year, and I'd love to throw something on him +170 to finish in the top 10 because he's currently driving Red Bull's junior team and they may try extra hard to get him some better finishes, but I need to see it first.
More to come after qualifying!

Hit the pole with Hamilton
Tyres could again be a problem this week (good god Pirelli, get your sh*t together) as several have blown up during practice.
Vettel looks the man to beat again...Hamilton was shockingly slow in the third practice.
Going to take Di Resta -125 over Massa right now. Di Resta seems to have some good speed this week. Massa is a mess. Hopefully more matchups get posted.

A fairly blah race. A couple moments of good racing, but overall not super exciting both race-wise and wagering wise.
Hit the winner, pole, Rosberg top 6. Missed 2 matchups and the number of cars.
If you didn't see this race, I don't know if I've ever seen a car that much faster like Vettel's car was. At one point he was in the lead...came in to the pits on green flag...and came out STILL IN THE LEAD!!!
Bad new for us bettors is that Kimi lost his breaks and went out and he was in 2nd place in the points. This morning Vettel is -720 to win the championship which means any and all value is gone. I have lots of futures with him, but it looks like that will be all we will be able to put down.
Lots of things I took away from this race though.
1. Fernando Alonso is probably the most talented driver in F1. I'd like to start finding some wagers with him in matchups and in top 3, top 6. His start to the race was unbelievable.
2. Jenson Button is the most difficult guy to predict in F1. No more wagers involving him.
3. Lots of value in top 6 wagering (Rosberg, Webber, Alonso).
4. Might as well take Vettel to win and finish in top 3 every week. If he doesn't win, he's going to be in the top 3. Most weeks he's going to do both.

Going to Italy this week !!!
(not me...the F1 guys)
If there is one race that Fernando Alonso and the Ferrari's are going to do everything possible to win...it's this one. And because of that, Alonso is going to get my support this week.
To win the pole, I'm going to take my standards:
Hamilton +195
Vettel +210
Also, going to sprinkle a little on Alonso at +875
To win the race, I'm taking
Vettel +170
Alonso +375 (if it comes down to it, I don't think Alonso is above taking someone out to get this win). Not buying into the Mercedes this week. They got dominated last race by the elites.
Top 3
Alonso -170
Top 6
Rosberg -220
Taking Felipe Massa at +150 in the top 6 is tempting at Ferrari's home track, but he's been a massive disappointment. So much that Ferrari came out and said he has to do better. Read an interesting article saying there are guys looking to impress Ferrari so they make a move away from Massa. Kimi, Di Resta, and Bottas were mentioned I believe.
Lets makethis week!!!

Huge race for me this week! 
Got the pole winner, race winner, Alonso top 3, Rosberg top 6, hit the Alonso-Webber matchup
Lost the Di Resta matchup, but at least I didn't have to wait long to see it as Di Resta wrecked on the first lap. Too bad because Sutil retired on the last lap. Would've been an easy win if Di Resta would've finished the race.
Red Bull cars got a little lucky today. Their transmissions were starting to fall apart at the end. If the race was 10 more laps, not sure if they would've made it.

Singapore Grand Prix!!! Who's ready for some F1 night time racing?!?
This is the only night time race of the season for the F1 cars. It's best to support the drivers that have a good solid history in racing at night, and that leads me to Vettel and Hamilton
I'm taking them for the pole:
Vettel +160
Hamilton +175
To win:
Vettel +130
Hamilton +130
Top 3:
Hamilton -140
Side Note: It's completely ridiculous odds..Vettel is -2300 to win the Championship. Hope everyone jumped on him early in the year.
