Max Verstappen was forced to retire at the Australian Grand Prix, but has since won back-to-back races in Japan and China. The F1 circuit heads to another site of Verstappen's success this week for the 2024 Miami Grand Prix on Sunday at 4pm ET. He has won each of his first two times in this race and is a -600 heavy favorite to win the 2024 Miami Grand Prix (he needs to risk $600 to win $100) . Names near the top of the F1 odds board include Sergio Perez (12-1), Charles Leclerc (18-1) and Lando Norris (18-1).
Perez has finished on the podium in four of the five races this season and was second in this race last year. Should you include him in your bets for the 2024 Miami Grand Prix?

Developed by Daily Fantasy pro and SportsLine predictive data engineer Mike McClure, this unique F1 prediction model simulates every race 10,000 times, taking into account factors such as track history and recent results. He has a strong history of success in motorsports, having accurately predicted nine of his NASCAR winners since the 2021 season, and his prediction leaderboards have predicted winners in multiple race formats.
This model has received a lot of attention when it comes to selecting F1 race events back in 2021. It secured two wins for Charles Leclerc in 2022, and this model strongly supported Verstappen as the front-runner for the 2021 Mexican Grand Prix. Result: Verstappen dominated the field and escaped with a surprise victory.
The model followed that up with Verstappen's victory at the Rolex Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix in April, as well as repeat victories in Belgium, the Netherlands, Japan, the United States, Mexico and Abu Dhabi. He also recorded all 19 of Verstappen's wins during the 2023 season and carried all four of the defending champion's wins into the start of the 2024 season. Anyone who followed the model's lead in these plays experienced significant benefits.
Now, the model will be participating in the 2024 F1 Miami Grand Prix and has announced its long-awaited picks and leaderboard predictions. You can visit SportsLine now to see the predicted leaderboard for the 2024 Miami Grand Prix.
Top Predictions for 2024 F1 Miami Grand Prix
One surprise: The model has Norris in decline, predicting he won't even reach the podium despite being one of the favorites at +1800. Norris struggled in the first two rounds of this race, retiring last year for the first time before finishing outside the top 15. After finishing second at the Chinese Grand Prix, he is still aiming for his first victory on the circuit.
In fact, he set a new F1 record for the most podium finishes without a race victory (15). But Norris has only finished on the podium twice in his last seven races and the pressure continues to mount as he continues to chase his first victory. This model caused Norris to miss out on the podium this week in his first two races in a city that did not favor him.
