That&#8217;s what I felt would happen in the Formula 1 markets when I heard these comments by McClaren on the state of play on their F1 season. I am amazed it took so long to be discounted into the price of Lewis Hamilton. But looking at the chart you can see his price has drifted considerably since these comments came out, an excellent trade. Lowest price traded was 3.50, current price after testing at the Aussie GP, 10&#8217;s!!<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_438\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-438\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-438\" title=\"090327-hamilton-mclaren-we-are-not-competitive\" src=\"https:\/\/www.betangel.com\/blog_wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/090327-hamilton-mclaren-we-are-not-competitive-300x214.png\" alt=\"The most predictable drift ever?\" width=\"300\" height=\"214\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.betfairtradingblog.com\/blog_wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/090327-hamilton-mclaren-we-are-not-competitive-300x214.png 300w, https:\/\/www.betfairtradingblog.com\/blog_wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/090327-hamilton-mclaren-we-are-not-competitive-600x428.png 600w, https:\/\/www.betfairtradingblog.com\/blog_wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/090327-hamilton-mclaren-we-are-not-competitive.png 700w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-438\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The most predictable drift ever?<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>\n<p id=\"pvc_stats_437\" class=\"pvc_stats all  \" data-element-id=\"437\" style=\"\"><i class=\"pvc-stats-icon medium\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" data-prefix=\"far\" data-icon=\"chart-bar\" role=\"img\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 512 512\" class=\"svg-inline--fa fa-chart-bar fa-w-16 fa-2x\"><path fill=\"currentColor\" d=\"M396.8 352h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V108.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v230.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm-192 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V140.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v198.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm96 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V204.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v134.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zM496 400H48V80c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16H16C7.16 64 0 71.16 0 80v336c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h464c8.84 0 16-7.16 16-16v-16c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16zm-387.2-48h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8v-70.4c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v70.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8z\" class=\"\"><\/path><\/svg><\/i> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" alt=\"Loading\" src=\"https:\/\/www.betfairtradingblog.com\/blog_wp\/wp-content\/plugins\/page-views-count\/ajax-loader-2x.gif\" border=0 \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"twitter-share\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?via=betangel\" class=\"twitter-share-button\">Tweet<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I made a post with this here a little while ago: &#8211; https:\/\/www.betangel.com\/blog_wp\/2009\/03\/13\/we-are-not-competitive\/ I am not skilled at motor racing sports or have a strong enough opinion to trade it regulary, but if a trainer came out and said that a horse was not competitive, you would expect the price to drift quite a bit.
