Austrian Grand Prix Grand Prix Betting Tips
With Ferrari clinching the win at an eventful British Grand Prix at Silverstone, all eyes are on Red Bull to retaliate and get their drivers back in the podium top spot in Austria. Championship leader Max Verstappen finished well outside the top four, but with the Belgian-Dutch driver victorious here in 2021, could he pull it back and take the win in this race again.

Austrian Grand Prix Betting Tips
Betting Tip 1: Lewis Hamilton to appear on the podium - 7/4
It may have been that he was back on home soil, but with Lewis Hamilton getting back on the podium at Silverstone, we think it will have given the Brit some confidence. He will be looking to build on that top-three finish and perhaps give Charles Leclerc and Max Verstappen a run for their money once again.
Lewis Hamilton to finish top 3: 7/4
Betting Tip 2: Red Bull To Win The Race - 4/6
Max Verstappen is known to have a strong record on this F1 track. However, with Sergio Perez also driving well in recent races, we're going for Red Bull to win the race and possibly take the top two spots on the podium.
Red Bull To Win The Race - 4/6
Betting Tip 3: Safetycar To Be Used - 11/20**
Historically this race has thrown up a few incidents, and with time penalties and collisions reported in the race last year, we're betting on the Safetycar being thrown into action at some point during the Austrian Grand Prix.

Austrian Grand Prix: - History
Held for the first time in 1963 at the Zeltweg Airfield, the Austrian Grand Prix has often been part of the F1 racing calendar and, since 2014, has been a firm fixture each season. Now hosted at the sponsored Red Bull Ring, repeat team winners of the Grand Prix are McLaren and Ferrari, but with three victories since 2018, Red Bull are creeping up the standings. Max Verstappen and Valterri Bottas have shared the last five renewals of the race, and with the race last year featuring driver collisions and time penalties, this race is always full of excitement.
