Motor Sports Betting Guide for Punters

Sports betting is one of those pastime activities that keeps on getting bigger and bigger over time. Punters from all around the world usually wager on the most popular sports competitions. This, of course, includes motor sports events that attract thousands of bettors week after week.

Among them are also beginners who are just starting out with sports betting. If you’re one of them, then you’re on the right page. Here, we’ll show you how to start off with motor sports betting with ease.

How to Place a Motor Sports Bet at a Bookmaker

Placing a motor sports bet isn’t a hard task, even if you’re a newcomer. It only requires following a few simple steps, which will only take a few minutes of your time. Here’s how the entire process goes

  1. Join an online sportsbook that offers motor sports races
  2. Verify and fund your betting account
  3. Access the “Sports” section and explore the available competitions and events.
  4. Pick a race that you like and choose a betting market
  5. Click on one of the betting options to select it
  6. Pick a stake amount and confirm your bet
  7. Wait for the event to end to see if you’ve won a payout

Almost all reputable Irish bookies will include motor sports events in their offer. But you still need to check if they feature the races that you’re interested in. Do this before you register, verify an account and deposit some funds.

Now, apart from pre-match bets, most bookmakers will also allow you to place live bets on motor sports events. The process is very similar, and it starts from the “Live” or “In Play” section. This type of betting lets you see how the events unfold before you decide how to wager.

Popular Motor Sports to Bet On

There are numerous motor sports competitions taking place every week. But in terms of betting, only a handful of races tend to attract the most attention.

One of them is, of course, Formula 1, which is by far the most-watched motor sport competition in the world. It has been around since 1950, and it features a global fanbase of around 826.5 million. Punters regularly bet on F1 races as they provide excitement like no other.

Next up, we have NASCAR. It’s the most followed racing event in the US, and it enjoys a growing international fanbase. This competition started out in 1948, and it follows a simpler form. Unlike F1, at NASCAR events, spectators get to see the entire track.

MotoGP is yet another big motor sport competition worth mentioning. It’s the motorcycle equivalent of F1 that involves riders who race for different teams. But compared to F1, in MotoGP, you get to enjoy even more takeovers, which is why it attracts so many punters.

Other motor sports competitions that are worth mentioning are IndyCar, Dakar Rally, World Rally Championship, Le Mans, Motorclass, and Formula E.

Motor Sports Betting Markets and Odds

A top online bookmaker will include a wide variety of betting markets on its motor sports events. You’ll find the most options on the biggest races. With that in mind, here are some of the popular betting markets that you can use:

  • Race winner: wagering on a specific driver/rider to win the race
  • Podium finish: betting that a driver/rider will finish among the top 3 within a race
  • Championship winner: an outright bet that allows you to bet on a driver/rider to win the competition
  • Constructor’s champion: wagering on a constructor to win the Drivers’ Championship
  • Winning car: betting on a specific team to win the race
  • Points finish: gambling on a driver/raider to finish among the top 10 within a race
  • Fastest lap: wagering on a driver/raider to get the quickest lap during the race
  • Driver to win multiple races: betting on a driver/raider to win a specific number of races during the season

Know that each betting market comes with different odds. The bigger the odds, the bigger your potential payout will be. However, bigger odds also come with an increased risk. So, before placing a bet, consider the odds, analyse the races, and try choosing the right betting option.
