Top Formula 1 Events for Your Bets
1w covers the full 2026 FIA Formula 1 World Championship calendar, giving you betting access to every round from pre-season through to the season finale.
Monaco Grand Prix
The Monaco Grand Prix is held on the Circuit de Monaco in Monte Carlo, one of the slowest and most technical tracks on the calendar. Overtaking is rare, which makes qualifying position critical and puts genuine value on pole-position bets and Fastest Lap markets. Historically, the race winner has started in the top three on the grid in over 80% of runnings. Expect tight 1w F1 odds on the race winner market and stronger value on head-to-head driver matchups given the processional nature of the race.
British Grand Prix
Silverstone hosts the British Grand Prix, one of the highest-speed circuits on the calendar. The track rewards aerodynamic efficiency and tyre management, making constructor performance data highly relevant for pre-race research. British fans follow F1 closely, and betting interest peaks sharply for this round. 1w Formula 1 betting markets for Silverstone include Race Winner, Podium Finish, and live in-race wagering as the action unfolds across 52 laps.
Italian Grand Prix
The Italian Grand Prix at Monza is the fastest race weekend of the season, with average lap speeds exceeding 260 km/h. Low downforce setups dominate, creating an unusual aerodynamic balance that can shuffle expected order. Power unit performance becomes the primary differentiator at Monza, making Constructor Championship Winner bets particularly relevant heading into this round. The 1w F1 odds for Monza shift quickly across the race weekend as setup data and free practice results emerge.
USA Grand Prix
The United States Grand Prix takes place at Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas. COTA features 20 corners across 5.513 kilometres and combines slow technical sections with high-speed sweepers. The race draws one of the largest global audiences on the F1 calendar, and 1w Formula 1 betting activity reflects that. Markets include Race Winner, Qualifying Winner, Fastest Lap, and multiple head-to-head driver pairings. Live betting is available throughout the race, with odds updating after each safety car period and pit stop sequence.
Japanese Grand Prix
Suzuka Circuit hosts the Japanese Grand Prix, widely regarded as one of the most technically demanding tracks in motorsport. The figure-eight layout and high-speed S-curves place extreme demands on downforce and mechanical balance. Suzuka has historically produced unpredictable results, making podium finish bets and head-to-head matchups strong options for experienced bettors. The race often plays a decisive role in Championship outcomes, giving added significance to Constructor and Driver title markets at this stage of the season.

Tips for Successful Formula 1 Betting
Consistent F1 betting starts with preparation, not instinct. Use these practical tips to make more informed decisions across every race weekend:
- Analyse recent driver and team form: Review the last three to five race results for each constructor before placing bets, as car development pace can shift competitive order mid-season;
- Factor in circuit characteristics: Power-unit circuits like Monza favour specific constructors, and high-downforce layouts like Monaco shift value toward qualifying specialists;
- Account for weather conditions: Wet races at circuits like Spa-Francorchamps historically produce podium results outside the top three in the standings at much higher frequency than dry conditions;
- Use qualifying results as a predictor: Starting position from pole has translated into a race win at over 40% of Grands Prix in recent seasons, making the Qualifying Winner market a strong input for Race Winner selection;
- Apply strict bankroll management: Limit individual race bets to a fixed percentage of your total balance, typically 2 to 5 per cent, to sustain your betting activity across a full 24-race season.

Odds update after key moments such as safety car deployments, pit stop sequences, and retirements. Navigate to the Live Betting section in the Sports menu to see all active F1 markets.
What currencies can New Zealand players use to bet on F1 at 1w?
1w supports NZD for account registration and deposits. You can fund your account using NZD without needing to convert to another currency before placing bets. Payment options include Visa, Mastercard, e-wallets, and selected cryptocurrency methods.
How are 1w F1 odds calculated and displayed?
1w Formula 1 odds are displayed in decimal format by default, which is standard for New Zealand sports betting. Odds reflect the probability of each outcome and include the platform margin. You can switch between decimal, fractional, and American formats in your account settings.
Is the 1w mobile app suitable for F1 betting during race weekends?
The 1w F1 app provides full access to pre-race and live betting markets during Grand Prix weekends. You can browse the race calendar, place bets, track your open wagers, and manage deposits and withdrawals entirely within the app. The app is available for both iOS and Android devices.
Are there specific bet types that work better for F1 compared to team sports?
F1 markets like Head-to-Head Driver Bets and Qualifying Winner are particularly effective for bettors who follow team performance closely, as they reduce the variance of a full 20-driver field to a binary outcome. Season-long markets such as Constructor Championship Winner allow you to apply broader research over a full calendar rather than committing to individual race outcomes.
