The odds for the win
As touched on above, it’s been tight at the sharp end of the field in recent events, with Red Bull coming under more and more pressure from Ferrari and McLaren to set up the prospect of a thrilling three-way title fight.
Monte Carlo’s twists, turns, bumps and kerbs did not suit Red Bull’s RB20 package, but Verstappen is heavily tipped to come back fighting at the more open and flowing Montreal venue, where he has claimed victory on the last two visits.
- Max Verstappen 1.40
- Charles Leclerc 6.00
- Lando Norris 7.00
- Oscar Piastri 21.0
- Carlos Sainz, Sergio Perez 26.0

- Daniel Ricciardo, Fernando Alonso, Yuki Tsunoda 301
- Alex Albon, Esteban Ocon, Kevin Magnussen, Lance Stroll, Logan Sargeant, Nico Hulkenberg, Pierre Gasly, Valtteri Bottas, Zhou Guanyu 601
Verstappen is the firm favourite for Canada, having won the race in 2022 and 2023
The odds for who will be fastest in qualifying
Verstappen is also favoured to bag what would be a third successive pole position around the 4.361-kilometre track, which is named after Canada’s late F1 hero Gilles Villeneuve, with his odds significantly shorter than nearest rivals Leclerc and Norris.
