Round three of the 2021 World Championship heralds a return to Portimao for the circuit's second-ever Grand Prix.

What are the odds for the win?

A terrific Emilia Romagna Grand Prix saw Verstappen win at Imola but it's Hamilton who leads the championship by one point. The Briton, who won the Bahrain season-opener, may have a very slight lead in the standings and took his record-breaking 92nd victory in last year's Portuguese GP – but is he favourite to take a second win of the season here?

This time around, the odds are tilted in Verstappen's favour, however, while Bottas and Perez are much longer shots than their respective team mates.

Ferrari's Charles Leclerc and McLaren's Imola podium-finisher Lando Norris are outsiders for pole at 41.0.

What are the odds for a podium finish?

After Norris's Imola podium, scored ahead of the two Ferraris, the race for the top three might not just be about the Mercedes and the Red Bulls.

There are many contenders for a trip to the rostrum, including the AlphaTauri of Pierre Gasly, the Ferraris of Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz and, of course, McLaren drivers Daniel Ricciardo and Norris.

As for Alpine and Aston Martin, they're longer bets for a podium having struggled to keep up with Ferrari and McLaren in the first two rounds. Perhaps they will have clawed back some pace for Portugal...

Lewis Hamilton, Max Verstappen 1.25
Valtteri Bottas, Sergio Perez 2.10
Lando Norris 3.75
Charles Leclerc 5.00
Daniel Ricciardo, Pierre Gasly 8.00
Carlos Sainz 9.00
Yuki Tsunoda 26.0
Fernando Alonso, Lance Stroll, Sebastian Vettel 51.0
Esteban Ocon 101
Antonio Giovinazzi, Kimi Raikkonen, George Russell, Nicholas Latifi 501
Mick Schumacher, Nikita Mazepin 901

What are the odds for fastest lap?

Hamilton's fastest effort at Imola gave him that extra point needed to lead the championship, but the chase for Fastest Lap is as always a close one to call.

However, Verstappen is favourite to take that bonus point for Fastest Lap in Portugal while Hamilton is just pipped to runner-up in these stakes. Of course, anything can happen this weekend, with the midfielders also in the running for Fastest Lap honours.

Max Verstappen 2.75
Lewis Hamilton 3.00
Valtteri Bottas 5.50
Sergio Perez 7.00
Lando Norris 15.0
Charles Leclerc 21.0
Pierre Gasly 26.0
Yuki Tsunoda 41.0
Carlos Sainz 67.0
Fernando Alonso 101
Esteban Ocon, Antonio Giovinazzi, George Russell, Kimi Raikkonen, Lance Stroll, Sebastian Vettel, Mick Schumacher, Nicholas Latifi, Nikita Mazepin 251

What are the odds for which team will take the most points?

Mercedes, Red Bull 1.85
Ferrari, McLaren 26.0
AlphaTauri 41.0
Alpine, Aston Martin 201
Alfa Romeo, Haas, Williams 901

What are the odds of a Safety Car during the race?

It's odds on for a Safety Car in this weekend's race at Portimao, and the demands of the circuit could mean we see some incidents. Furthermore, Bahrain and Imola both held dramatic contests and the odds may also reflect that.
