THE new Formula One season roars into action in the early hours of Sunday morning with the Australian Grand Prix in Melbourne.

The revamped qualifying system was panned on its debut on Saturday and by the end of it there was a Mercedes one-two at the front of the grid with Lewis Hamilton taking pole and Nico Rosberg second.

World champ Hamilton is now 1-2 at Boylesports to bag victory in Melbourne with Rosberg 7-2 at Unibet and Sebastien Vettel 8-1 at Unibet.

At the Indian Wells tennis the women's final pits world No.1 Serena Williams against Victoria Azarenka. Williams – who leads the head-to-head 17-3 and has won the last five in a row – is 1-3 at BetVictor to take the title.

World No.15 Azarenka is 5-2 at Ladbrokes for the win. She was won a set in four of the last five meetings and same again tonight pays 10-11 at BetVictor.

Other sporting highlights include two matches from cricket's T20 World Cup and a six-game NBA card so let's hear all your tips and chat and Jordan will add his basketball picks below.

    Valteri Bottas had a back injury and missed last seasons Australian GP he’s never been a great qualifier and finds himself in the 11th spot on the grid in the morning. But he finished top 6 in 12 out of the 19 races last season and still has the Mercedes engine so I reckon 11/4 is a great price for a top 6 finish at Bet365.

    Damnit, just after heading off to bed Bottas was handed a five place grid penalty… still managed to battle back to 8th from starting 16th but that’s a point lost.

    Just under 37/10 @ 365 (3.67/1) – 0.5 a point **LOSE**

    The Pelicans were delivered some bad news over the last couple of days with Anthony Davis possibly missing the rest of the season. Last time he was out I took his replacements points as the offense will go round a lot more, and this man is their second highest scorer per game despite coming off the bench.

    Ryan Anderson has scored 29 and 30 in his last two games and with the starting role he should have similar numbers tonight. He hasn’t been great against the Clippers this season, but with Davis out this could be close.

    Ryan Anderson (Pelicans) Over 20.5 Points @ 10/11 @ Skybet – 2.2 points

    • huggybear518 10 years ago

      Good call . I’ll join that for £25

  13. nick 10 years ago

    Rushed to put my money on it then loaded Rotoworld and saw
    Ryan Anderson (left groin) will not play Sunday vs. the Clippers.
    Haha

  14. nick 10 years ago

    Is Khris Middleton o14.5 on Skybet because of Utah’s defense or a cock up?

  15. Jordan 10 years ago

    Anderson is out for the Pelicans so bet voided.

  16. Jordan 10 years ago

    Clippers -9 @ 1.81 @ Marathon Bet. Its a big spread but without Anderson, Davis and Cole, Jrue Holiday will have a lot of work. Can’t see the Pelicans keeping it close. 2.5 points

    • huggybear518 10 years ago

      Wats jrue points

    • Jordan 10 years ago

      19.5 @ Skybet. Probably decent but I’d rather go with the Clippers.

  17. raoul duke 10 years ago

    Celtics @ 76ers – Under 222
    LA Clippers ML
    Utah Jazz +7

    Treble @ 2.08 (Bet 365) – 1.5 Points.

    Good luck

  18. Jordan 10 years ago

    Kings -4 @ 10/13 @ Betway – 2.6 points

  19. Jordan 10 years ago

    Oh wow. Holiday single handed taking on the Clippers. Yay.

  20. Jordan 10 years ago

    Doh. Jrue with 22…
