Mercedes' Lewis Hamilton has a record five victories at Yas Marina and he's listed at +1800 in the 2024 Abu Dhabi GP odds. McLaren's Lando Norris (+1200), Red Bull's Sergio Perez (+1400) and Ferrari's Charles Leclerc (+1600) are sandwiched between Verstappen and Hamilton on this week's F1 odds board.

We are left, then, with the following conclusion: Hamilton is still one of F1's best and has the ability to win that eighth title, though the Mercedes car he needs to compete might not be capable of that until 2024 at the earliest.
