Formula 1 visits Sin City this weekend as the inaugural Las Vegas Grand Prix takes place on the Las Vegas Strip Circuit. The green flag is set to drop at 1 a.m. ET on Sunday. Max Verstappen, who already has clinched his third consecutive F1 championship, is the -250 favorite in the 2023 Las Vegas Grand Prix odds, while Charles Leclerc is +195. George Russell is +1800, followed by Lewis Hamilton, Carlos Sainz and Sergio Perez, all at +5000. Fernando Alonso (+7000) is the only other driver going off lower than +20000. The Las Vegas forecast calls for temperatures in the low 50s around race time. 

Before making any 2023 Las Vegas Grand Prix picks, you NEED to see what SportsLine's Micah Roberts has to say. A former Vegas bookmaker, Roberts was the first to offer expanded NASCAR betting and now hands out winners to his followers on SportsLine.

Roberts is the nation's premier NASCAR betting expert, and his top pick, Denny Hamlin, won the HighPoint.com 400 on July 23 at +500. He also predicted Martin Truex Jr.'s victory at +650 in the Crayon 301 the previous week and Ross Chastain's triumph at +1000 in the Ally 400 in June. In addition, Roberts correctly called Kyle Larson's win at +650 in the NASCAR All-Star Race in May and nailed the EchoPark Automotive Grand Prix winner in March by hitting Tyler Reddick's victory at +1000.

In addition, the expert correctly predicted Chase Elliott to win the YellaWood 500 at +1200 last October and the Jockey Made in America 250 in 2021, nailed the 2021 Coca-Cola 600 winner by hitting Larson's victory at +550 and was on point by targeting Elliott as the winner of the EchoPark Texas Grand Prix at +160 the previous week. Anyone who has followed his picks has cashed ticket after ticket.

Now, Roberts has analyzed the field for Sunday's Formula.1 Las Vegas Grand Prix. We can tell you he's fading Leclerc, even though he is one of the favorites at +195. In fact, Roberts says Leclerc barely even cracks the top five!

"Leclerc posted three of his five career wins last season, but he hasn't been able to break through this year. He's had only four podium finishes," Roberts said.

Instead, Roberts is high on a HUGE longshot who "has been at his best the last two seasons." This driver is being vastly underestimated by oddsmakers, and anyone who backs him could hit it BIG! You ABSOLUTELY need to see who it is before making any picks.
