Max Verstappen can bounce back from a frustrating early exit at the Sakhir Grand Prix and finish the 2020 Formula One season off in style in Abu Dhabi.

Lewis Hamilton's dominance in Formula One unsurprisingly makes him an evens favourite for the French Grand Prix.

But odds of 4/1 represent good value for a fired-up Sebastian Vettel. More...
