    Formula 1 in about 5 hours... what are we betting???

    I've bet F1 once in my life I think. The only reason I am betting it tomorrow is because I am going to a BBQ tomorrow, F1 will be on the projection screen. We will have drinking games during the race. I think we have to take a shot every time a car hits a wall, every time certain drivers pass cars, etc.

    Anyway, because I will be watching the race, I HAVE to put some money on it.

    I was thinking of throwing some money on Alosno and Hamilton, and then a little more on Webber as a break even bet.

    Not sure how to do it yet though, so I thought I would check with my SBR family and see what you guys think about this race.

    I cant watch it and pound shots without having money on it.

    I dont think what I was thinking (betting those 3 drivers) is going to work.

    After a little research I was thinking Hamilton, Alonso and Schumacher. Schu put up a great time in qualifying.

    The Rosberg bet is interesting, ACoochy.

    No don't think he can win as not enough passing opportunities on this track. From 6th I believe he can finish 3rd. Its all about pitstop strategy.

    Simply fading Webber from the start as guy is notoriously bad starter. Rosberg next logical choice..GL

    Webber has been having atrocious starts all year, Pole sitter not to lead the first lap is a good bet I think. If your book has it. I like it better than taking Rosberg personally.

    Alonso for a podium finish +220

    Alonso and Raikkonen for fastest lap, both about +900

    Winning margin under 5 seconds -120

    Vettel will try and 1 stop the race and should be a good bet to finish top 6 too. -110

    I'll be fading the Mercs in matchups against Alonso and Hamilton too. Parlayed I think. I suspect they will eat their tyres too fast to figure in the podium at the end.

    My best friend even got in on this, and he never bets unless he is in Vegas. He just opened up a 5Dimes account tonight to throw $500 on this race. $60 across 8 drivers. If he wins $2500 he's gonna be hooked.

    It's gonna be on hell of a BBQ!!!

    I just learned about the tire rules tonight, when I found out we were having an F1 Party. Crazy shit... This ain't Nascar, boys!!!

    As monaco is a tight street circuit if there's a crash (like a caution in NASCAR) then the safety car comes out

    Passing in near on impossible here so over taking can only be done where pit stops happen

    Winner will come from

    Webber or Rosberg

    Lotus to finish in top 3 (most likely Grosjean)
    Watch out for Mercedes too, they can even win it. I would rather lay Webber than back him.

    Monaco is the worst place for over taking so I don't think you'll drink too much for that you should take a shot every time a car enters the pit too

    This year should be different because of the tires so I think a lot of changes can happen because of the tires and the strategies not to mention the potential of crashes or other incidents. I hope it won't be boring

    watch out the first corner at the start: crucial moment of the race.
