Hamilton’s Bahrain GP price is halved after first practise

Click here for the latest odds on race four of the 2009 season

Last season chickendinner enjoyed a lot of success by using past results to analyse whether it would be Lewis Hamilton, Felipe Massa or Kimi Raikkonen standing on the top step of the podium. However, this year has proven a lottery so far. Last weekend’s stats suggested that Ferrari would improve in China but it never materialised while the unpredictability surrounding this weekend’s race has seen Lewis Hamilton’s Betfair price crash from 22 to 11 after going fastest in first practise. Here are some Bahrain GP stats:

» Felipe Massa has won the last two Bahrain Grands Prix and Fernando Alonso the two before that but the only driver to have finished on the podium in each of the last four is Kimi Raikkonen.

» Sebastien Vettel, the winner in China last weekend, retired after one lap in Bahrain last year.

Ferrari have a chance to kick start their season in Shanghai

Ferrari have had a miserable start to the season, failing to score a single half-point in either of the opening two races. With the Brawn cars receiving a thumbs-up from the FIA, they will be expected to dominate again in Shanghai but here’s why it might be worth betting on Kimi Raikkonen or Felipe Massa being the best-placed driver besides Jenson Button and Rubens Barrichello at 8/1 and 10/1 with Sky Bet:

» Massa failed to score points in either of the first two races last season before winning the third and he scored more points than any other driver outside of Australia and Malaysia in 2008.

» Since joining Ferrari in 2006, the Brazilian has never finished three straight races outside of the points.
