Coming up next on the F1 schedule is the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, which is the last race of the 2023 season. The race weekend will begin with a pair of practice sessions on Friday, which leads up to the main event at the Yas Marina Circuit on Sunday, unfolding over 58 laps, covering a total distance of 190.25 miles.
The Abu Dhabi Grand Prix starts at 8 a.m. ET on Sunday, November 26, and will air on ESPN. If you are not in front of a TV, you can view the race via live online stream at WatchESPN and through the ESPN app. You will need a cable log-in to stream the race, so if you don’t have one, you can get a free trial from YouTube TV, Hulu with Live TV, AT&T TV Now, FuboTV, or Sling TV to stream it.
Max Verstappen stands out as the clear favorite to clinch the victory, with DraftKings Sportsbook favoring him at -390 odds. His dominance this season more than reinforces his frontrunner status, as Verstappen has won 18-of-21 races this season, which includes six straight victories. On top of that, he has finished atop the podium in each of the last three years of the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.
Next on the odds board stands Lando Norris at +1200 odds to claim the win, followed by Charles Leclerc and Sergio Perez, who are listed at +1400 and +1600 odds respectively.
