Betting tips for the Australian GP - 3rd March 19:49pm GMT

The season is due to kick off tomorrow morning and better late than never the betting
predictions are back. A very hard one to start predicting because we don't really know
who are going to be the main guns so its really a case of you could win alot of money
or losing alot of money.

Predictions for the Australian GP:

BET 1: HEAD TO HEAD - Alonso to outqualify Fisichella (3/5). Winter testing shows Fernando has the upper hand and it helps with the fact he has been with the team longer. Those two should allow him to beat this team mate. Bet £20 - Potential Win £32

BET 2: HEAD TO HEAD - Webber to outqualify Heidfeld (3/5). More or less the same as above really with Mark getting abit more mileage with the new car than Nick. Plus its Mark's home GP so he will have the support. Bet £20 - Potential Win £32

BET 3: HEAD TO HEAD - Massa to outqualify Villeneueve (7/10). Since Jacques return to F1 he hasn't set the world alight and since joining Sauber Felipe has been constantly faster so on those its time to side with Felipe. Bet £15 - Potential Win £25.50

BET 4: RACE SPECIAL - Button not to finish the race (163/100). BAR have reliability problems despite having a good record last year, something isn't quite clicking there at the moment. Its either Jenson or Takumo who won't finish so lets bet on both not to finish. Bet £10 - Potential Win £26.30

BET 5: RACE SPECIAL - Sato not to finish the race (29/20). So if Takumo or Jenson do not finish I win. If both don't finish I am in the money but if just one fails to finish I still
walk away with money in the pocket. Bet £10 - Potential Win £24.50

Pole is likely to go to a Michelin runner but which one, well it could be anyone. Kimi, Juan
Pablo, Fernando, Jenson etc but its to close to call.

Check back later in the week to find out the result from Australia and how much money I have won/lost.
