    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

                  Best bet is safety car in the race -450

                  There is always a safety car at this track

                      Shaun, I think you are just fukking with me. Wtf is a safety car??? I just want to pound drinks and hopefully look like I know what I am doing when we all show what we bet for the race. Like I said, I dont know shit about this, so just trying to get some help at SBR.

                        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

                                    We're not watching this race live obiously. Shit starts in less than 4 hours.

                                    It will be DVR'd and we will start watching around noon tomorrow. So i wont be looking at and sports scores or SBR until after that. I dont want any fukkin spoilers.

                                          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.

                                              sorry guys, was out at a 'monaco' party and missed the change to give any advice.

                                              pretty amazing how this weekend gets everyones motorsport juices flowing.

                                              I went 4-1 on the race.

                                                It was a fun race to watch. I think I can get into F1.

                                                  3D theres more money in F1 than what the US government spends on NASA
