Valtteri Bottas hasn’t had much success this season but has been terrific in his career at the Austrian Grand Prix. His +15000 odds at legal online sportsbooks are way too long considering he has four top three finishes in this event since 2017.

More importantly, Bottas won the event in 2017 and 2020, yet his outright odds to win the Austrian Grand Prix are +50000. It will be difficult to beat Max Verstappen, but the value is there for Valtteri Bottas to finish in the top three on Sunday.
