Imola Grand Prix Betting Tips

Flo Pinkerton

F1 is back as the season moves to Europe. Join us as we look at Imola Grand Prix betting tips for this weekend. Oscar Piastri enters the Imola Grand Prix as the outright favourite to win after a stellar start to his 2025 season. He comes into the race on the back of three straight wins, including a dominant performance in Miami.

Piastri Leads the Betting Markets

Although Piastri has only raced at Imola once before, his recent form makes him the top contender to take victory. Lando Norris, his McLaren teammate, has enjoyed past success at this circuit, including three podium finishes. Norris has shown strong pace and consistency this year and is just behind Piastri in the F1 betting odds.

Could Verstappen Win in Imola?

Max Verstappen is expected to challenge the McLaren duo, despite Red Bull‘s car being slightly off the pace in recent races. Verstappen remains a threat due to his experience and ability to maximise results, even without the fastest car.

Driver Odds to Win:

  • Oscar Piastri – 2.43
  • Lando Norris – 2.50
  • Max Verstappen – 6.09
  • George Russell – 18.29
  • Charles Leclerc – 25.45
  • Lewis Hamilton – 28.95
  • Kimi Antonelli – 38.2
  • Yuki Tsunoda – 178.78

Odds for a Podium Finish at Imola

The podium market mirrors the win odds, with Piastri and Norris both strong favourites to finish in the top three. If Piastri continues his current form, it’s hard to see him missing the podium at Imola.

Lando Norris is also a solid choice for a podium, thanks to his past results at this track. Max Verstappen is next in line and offers slightly better value for a podium than for an outright win. George Russell has finished on the podium four times in 2025 and is pushing for another top-three result here. He has yet to claim a podium at the Imola circuit but could change that this weekend.

Youngster Kimi Antonelli could spring a surprise on home soil in front of the passionate Italian crowd. This is his first Imola race in Formula 1, and the crowd support could give him an extra edge.

Driver Podium Odds:

  • Oscar Piastri – 1.216
  • Lando Norris – 1.259
  • Max Verstappen – 1.935
  • George Russell – 3.12
  • Kimi Antonelli – 4.52
  • Charles Leclerc – 4.63
  • Lewis Hamilton – 4.65
  • Yuki Tsunoda – 17.13
  • Carlos Sainz – 49.14

Odds for the Winning Team at Imola

McLaren are strong favourites to take the team win at Imola, following another dominant showing in Miami. The team currently sits at the top of the Constructors’ Championship with 246 points, a lead of 105 over Mercedes.
McLaren’s strength lies in their consistency, with both Piastri and Norris regularly fighting at the front of the grid. Red Bull are the second-favourites despite not having the fastest car this season.

Max Verstappen’s consistency keeps Red Bull in the mix for top team honours.
Mercedes and Ferrari trail in the odds and will need strong performances from both drivers to challenge the leaders.

Team Winning Odds:

  • McLaren – 1.483
  • Red Bull – 7.11
  • Mercedes – 14.78
  • Ferrari – 16.18
