The triple-header begins with the Japanese Grand Prix at Suzuka, followed by Bahrain and Saudi Arabia. Suzuka is a unique, medium-speed circuit featuring numerous winding corners, two short straights, and a hairpin. It’s a highly technical track, loved by many drivers, though not all. Known for its potential for rain, the circuit boasts excellent runoff drainage.

This weekend, we face a significant chance of a wet race, with a 60% probability of rain on Sunday and 40% on Saturday. This could favor drivers like Ocon, Antonelli, and Verstappen, potentially creating opportunities for long-shot bets.

The midfield remains unpredictable. Teams like Williams, VCARB, Haas, and Aston Martin could either excel or struggle, making them high-risk, high-reward picks for a top-six finish.

The top teams are closely matched, with McLaren currently showing a significant edge.
