As every year, January is the month of predictions. While waiting for the new cars to be unveiled, fans have already started betting on who could be the favorite in the battle between Ferrari and McLaren for the Constructors’ Championship title in the 2025 F1 season.
The two historic teams ended the last championship fighting point for point. In the end, it was the British team led by Andrea Stella that emerged victorious, clinching the title in Abu Dhabi and bringing a championship back to Woking that had been absent for several years.
For this reason, and considering the regulations have remained largely unchanged, many are expecting another Ferrari-McLaren duel at the top. The Scuderia will also benefit from the contribution of Lewis Hamilton, with fans hoping to see the Prancing Horse return to championship glory, a feat that has eluded them since 2008.
The favorite according to bookmakers
Looking at the odds offered by various betting sites, one favorite seems to stand out. According to SNAI, Ferrari’s chances of winning the Constructors’ Championship are rated at 1.75, compared to McLaren at 2.25, Red Bull at 7.50, and Mercedes at 15. Similarly, Better follows the same trend, with Ferrari at 2, McLaren at 2.25, Red Bull at 6, and Mercedes at 13.
Eurobet also considers Ferrari the favorite to win the Constructors’ title, with odds of 1.85. McLaren follows at 2.25, with Red Bull at 7 and Mercedes at 9.
Bet365 takes a slightly different view, placing Ferrari and McLaren on equal footing, both at 2.25, with Red Bull at 5 and Mercedes at 13.
Of course, these odds are likely to change based on what happens on track during testing and as the new cars are revealed.
