It's the only bet worth taking at this stage! Only interested in a big outside win. I made over 3k on button with a £40 bet so keen for some sort of repeat!

People who bet on Donald Trump, Leicester City, Jeremy Corbyn and Britain Voting to Exit the EU probably thought that as well.
in regards to prez campaigns, to be fair, i've seen it coming all along it was gonna be trump but that s another story alltogether.
meanwhile, a smart bet in that area is putting money on both. put 20 bucks on both trump and hillary. fun thing is, you easily win back those 40 bucks when the game is done. i made a good buck on that, no kidding. i only need to take 40 bucks of, and the scale of the profit is insane. only wished i put up more money. should have done the tenfold atleast, and still would have made a big, big profit. but well, after the fact.......

anyway, the odds for kimi are not illogical. indeed, ferrari are hardly in a expectable winning format. vettel is their main aim right now, and kimi is at the tail end of his f1 career. not of his talent, but definately in his f1 career. motivational or not doesnt matter, it's the simple truth. if kimi would have been in the mercedes instead of bottas [which quite frankly i would have really liked as much or perhaps in the end even more than seeing alonso there], his odds would have been muuuuch better.

yes, he even named his son after VET.

That Kimi's odds are lower then Alonso's doesn't seem strange to me. I guess its the chance of having the winning car plus the odds against your teammate that count here. If McLaren for some reason have a title winning car next year, it's going to be Alonso. If Ferrari holds of the competition, its a fight between Vettel and Kimi....
