Hamilton 11/2 for F1 Title

Lewis Hamilton has been cut to 11/2 with Betfred and William Hill to win the Formula 1 drivers' title after victory in the Hungarian Grand Prix on a very good weekend for Bettingzone.co.uk followers.

Our Tom Millard tipped up the Brit to take pole at the Hungaroring and he enjoyed further success as his stake on McLaren to be the winning car secured a bumper profit of 22 points from race 11 of the season.

Fernando Alonso remains the favourite to win the title with his over lead over second-placed Mark Webber now standing at 40 points.

The Ferrari driver can be backed at 11/10 with Ladbrokes and Sebastian Vettel, two points further behind Red Bull team-mate Webber in the title hunt, is second in the betting at 3/1 with Paddy Power.

Webber is out at 14/1 after he could only finish eighth in Hungary.

Kimi Raikkonen finished second and was joined on the podium by Lotus companion Romain Grosjean after the Frenchman took third.

Raikkonen sits one point behind Hamilton, who is 47 points adrift of Alonso in the standings, and can be backed at 16/1 to come out on top when the season ends.

"It looks like Lewis now has the car that should ensure he is a genuine contender for the second half of the season," said Rupert Adams of William Hill.

Red Bull are the 1/3 favourites with BetVictor for the constructors' title as they hold a 53-point advantage over McLaren.

The Woking based-outfit can be backed at 11/2 with Paddy Power and Ferrari and Lotus are available at 18/1 and 20/1 respectively.
