Are you into betting and looking for good Formula One races? Formula One is definitely one of the most interesting and potentially profitable motorsports out there. With cars that can reach a top speed of up to 350 kilometers per hour, you can rest assured that there will be many exciting moments during these races.

When it comes to betting, punters have plenty of choices to bet on. From Grand Prix winners and World Championship winners to constructor championship winners and duels – you can choose from a wide range of fun bets with good odds.

The number of races in one season is changing all the time, but there are usually over 20 races that are taking places all over the world. With the help of our list, you will learn more about the biggest and best Formula One races to bet on and more.

Even though Europe is home to most of these races, we have covered Formula One events on other continents too. Next time you want to place a bet on this motorsport, you can do this with more confidence thanks to our list.

1. The Italian Grand Prix

Only a small number of races have a history like Monza, a race that’s part of the Italian Grand Prix. Truth be told, Imola, another racing track in Italy was also used for the Italian Grand Prix, but Autodromo Nazionale Monza is way more popular. It was used for the F1 event every season except in 1980.

With an impressive history like that, it’s quite natural that there are interesting records associated with the Italian Grand Prix. For instance, both Lewis Hamilton and Michael Schumacher have won this race five times. When it comes to constructors, the “home” team of Ferrari has the most wins – 20.

So, if you are planning on betting on the Italian Grand Prix held in Monza, you should always consider betting on Ferrari drivers. Another good indicator of the bet is the pole position. For example, Charles Leclerc won the pole position in 2019 and also won the race. Since Lewis Hamilton is still in the game (unlike Michael Schumacher) you can also take him into account when you are choosing winners.

2. Monaco Grand Prix

Venue: Circuit de Monaco
Opened: 1929
Length: 3.337 kilometers
Laps: 78
Last winner: Lewis Hamilton
Driver with most wins: Ayrton Senna

The Monaco Grand Prix is one of those races that go beyond Formula One. This is one of the most famous races in the world. One of the main reasons for that is the place where the race is held – on the streets of the affluent city-state of Monaco (Monte Carlo to be more precise). This is another race with a long history – over 75 races were held here since 1929.

What’s important to know is that the legendary F1 driver Ayrton Senna holds the record at this circuit. He has the highest number of wins. Of course, modern drivers are trying to beat that record every year and it seems that Lewis Hamilton is on a good track. It’s good to point out that this is a relatively short race although it has almost 80 laps.

As previously mentioned, Lewis Hamilton is a good betting option in Monaco. He won this race three times and almost always won the pole position before doing that. Of course, betting on the biggest race is not a sure bet because there are always surprises, so we advise punters to use smaller bets unless they are confident that one of the racers is a clear favorite.

3. The British Grand Prix

Venue: Silverstone Circuit
Opened: 1926
Length: 5.891 kilometers
Laps: 52
Last winner: Lewis Hamilton
Driver with most wins: Lewis Hamilton

If we want to create a list of the biggest and best Formula One races to bet on and we don’t mention Silverstone, that would be a huge mistake. The British Grand Prix is held at the Silverstone Circuit. This circuit has a tradition that goes back to 1926 and it hosted racing events that are part of F1 since its inaugural season in 1950. This is another race that has an average length and just 52 laps.

As for the drivers that have the most impressive records at Silverstone, we must mention Lewis Hamilton. This was the race that gave this popular Formula One driver confidence to become one of the best drivers of all time. Alain Prost and Kim Clark are former participants that had good results here.

But, what gives Lewis Hamilton and advantage over these drivers is the fact that he can win this race again…and again. Lewis Hamilton is the last winner even though he didn’t take the pole position in 2019. Since Ferrari has good results as a constructor you might consider betting on this team at Silverstone especially when Leclerc is around.

4. The Canadian Grand Prix

Venue: Circuit Gilles Villeneuve
Opened: 1961
Length: 4.361 kilometers
Laps: 70
Last winner: Lewis Hamilton
Driver with most wins: Lewis Hamilton/Michael Schumacher

Formula One is an international sport with fans across the globe. One of the places where this sport has a strong fan base in Canada. Circuit Gilles Villeneuve was home to the F1 race in 1978 although there were F1 races in Canada at two other places before that.

Circuit Gilles Villeneuve belongs to the races with the shortest length although the number of laps is relatively high – 70. Just like in the case of Monza, two drivers hold the record at this track when it comes to most wins – Michael Schumacher and Lewis Hamilton.

They have both won this race seven times. From the active drivers, Sebastian Vettel, the popular German driver is the only one that has won at this race in the last five years (other than Hamilton).

If you are interested in betting on the Canadian Grand Prix, you can always count on Lewis Hamilton. He seems to be a sure bet at this event, but if you want to play super safe, bet on Hamilton to end on one of the first three places. Obviously, following drivers’ performance during the start of a motor race is a smart thing to do.

5. The Brazilian Grand Prix

Venue: Autodromo Jose Carlos Pace/Interlagos
Opened: 1921
Length: 4.309 kilometers
Laps: 71
Last winner: Max Verstappen
Driver with most wins: Alain Prost

The Brazilian Grand Prix is currently held in Interlagos at the Autodromo Jose Carlos Pace. As one of the biggest Formula One races, it draws the attention of millions of people every year. It’s worth mentioning that the circuit is less than 4500 kilometers long and that the first Formula One race here was held in 1972.

There were many epic races held at this track and some of them involved Ayrton Senna and Alain Prost. The latter is the most successful driver at Autodromo Jose Carlos Pace. As for the constructors, it’s McLaren that holds the record.

In modern times, there’s no single driver that can say that this track is “his track”. It seems that every year brings another winner. This means that it’s very difficult to predict the outcome thus it’s difficult to place bets here.

Even though Max Verstappen won in 2019, this was his first win at this track. Hamilton won in 2018, but Vettel won the year before that. If you are thinking about betting on the Brazilian Grand Prix, as always, check the pole position and the performance of drivers during this stage of the competition.

6. The Belgian Grand Prix

Venue: Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps
Opened: 1925
Length: 7.004 kilometers
Laps: 44
Last winner: Charles Leclerc
Driver with most wins: Michael Schumacher

Long before Formula One became a competition, automobile races were held at Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps. Of course, it was F1 that made this place popular worldwide. One of the most interesting things about this place is that it often rains during F1 races making it a little bit difficult to predict who will win the race until the end.

This is also one of the longest races in Formula One – 7.004 kilometers and just 44 laps. It seems that the Belgian Grand Prix was one of Schumacher’s favorites because he is the repeat winner with the best record here followed by Ayrton Senna. Just like in the case of many other tracks, Ferrari has the best score on this track with 18 wins.

In the last five years, the winners at Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps were changing. The last winner is Charles Leclerc, but that can easily change next time because Vettel and Hamilton usually do well on this track too.

The safest betting option you have here, and the most interesting one at the same time, is betting on a driver in a duel between two drivers.

7. The Japanese Grand Prix

Venue: Suzuka Circuit
Opened: 1963
Length: 5.807 kilometers
Laps: 53
Last winner: Valtteri Botas
Driver with most wins: Michael Schumacher

The Land of the Rising Sun has the honor to host one of the biggest Formula one races. It was opened in 1963 and started hosting F1 races in 1976. It’s good to know that in the beginning, it was Fuji Speedway that hosted F1 races. Suzuka Circuit has an interesting design that allows drivers to showcase a wide range of talents and skills that they possess.

There are parts with many curves, but there are also parts with a straight road where drivers can reach top speeds. Although Michael Schumacher still holds the record at the Japanese Grand Prix, Lewis Hamilton has a chance to meet and exceed this record.

He has an excellent history at this race – he won three of the last five races. Yet, it’s Bottas from Mercedes that won the title in 2019. Keep in mind that the Japanese Grand Prix, which is held at Suzuka Circuit since 2010, is usually one of the last races on the F1 calendar.

This means that the drivers are under pressure, but they also know that there’s no room for mistakes. In other words, we can usually expect the best performance from the best drivers. That makes it easier for punters because betting on the favorites is usually easier.

8. The Dutch Grand Prix

Venue: Circuit Park Zandvoort
Opened: 1948
Length: 4.252 kilometers
Laps: 72
Last winner: Nikolaus Lauda
Driver with most wins: Jim Clark

The Dutch Grand Prix had a long break, but now it’s back and it’s expected to be one of the biggest Formula One races to bet on. It’s held at Circuit Park Zandvoort located in north Holland. This time, the circuit length is 4.252 kilometers and drivers have to finish 72 laps.

The records of this race will take you down memory lane because the last race was held in 1985 when the Formula One legend Nikolaus Lauda of McLaren won the title. Both Senna and Prost were on the podium that day too. Yet, the British driver Jim Clark holds the record of most wins at the Dutch Grand Prix.

Ferrari is the most successful constructor team at the race. So, maybe even in the 21^st century, the drivers from this team will have an advantage over other drivers. You have to take this fact into account when you are analyzing the best betting options.

9. The Austrian Grand Prix

Venue: Red Bull Ring
Opened: 1963
Length: 4.318 kilometers
Laps: 71
Last winner: Max Verstappen
Driver with most wins: Alain Prost

Before we start talking about the Austrian Grand Prix as one of the biggest Formula One races, we should highlight the fact that it was held at two different locations – Zeitweg Airfield and Osterreichring (later renovated and renamed to A1-Ring and then to Red Bull Ring).

In any case, today, this is one of the most anticipated Formula One events. Before the main event, the audience can enjoy a few special events. Alain Prost is the most successful driver at this race with three wins.

But, this also means that winning at this track is not easy because there are just a few repeat winners and they don’t have more than two wins (except for Prost). As for today’s betting options, one might consider the fact that Lewis Hamilton won just one race and that Max Verstappen won the last two races.

Of course, before betting on Verstappen, you should always check the current standings and form of all participants.

10. The United States Grand Prix

Venue: Circuit of the Americas
Opened: 1908
Length: 5.513 kilometers
Laps: 56
Last winner: Valtteri Bottas
Driver with most wins: Lewis Hamilton

The US Grand Prix is another race that deserves to be on the list of biggest and best Formula One races to bet on. What makes this race unique is that it has taken place in many different locations. However, starting from 2012, the US Grand Prix is held at the Circuit of the Americas in Texas.

If you take a close look at the performance of drivers over the years, you will notice that there were not many repeat winners here except for Lewis Hamilton. He won the last race held in Indianapolis in 2007 and the first race held at the new track. He won a total of 6 US Grand Prix competitions.

Despite this tremendous success, it looks like Hamilton doesn’t have luck in the last two years. For instance, last year, he lost to Bottas, his team colleague. So, maybe if you are betting on this race, it might be a smart move to choose constructor winner because Mercedes dominates Circuit of the Americas in the last decade.
