Flush offers Formula 1 betting on every race of the season, including qualifying and special markets. Here is how each market type is settled.

General Rules

All markets are settled based on the official result at the time of the podium presentation unless otherwise stated. If a race is postponed to another day within the UTC time zone, all markets for that event are void.

If a race is shortened due to weather or other circumstances but is deemed official and full points are awarded, all bets stand and are settled on that result.

Race Result and Classification

  • Drivers starting from the pit lane are ranked at the end of the starting grid for settlement purposes.

  • If competitors retire on different laps, the number of completed laps determines their relative position for settlement.

  • Dead heat rules apply when more winners occur than expected in a market.

Fastest Lap Markets: The driver recording the fastest lap in the specified lap, lap range, or full race is the winner. All lap times are settled using official millisecond timing.

Head-to-Head and Group Winner Markets: If all listed drivers retire on the same lap, the market is void. If any listed driver retires during or before the formation lap, the market is void.

Overtaking Rules

  • An overtake only counts if the driver maintains the position until the end of the lap.

  • Overtakes on Lap 1 do not count.

  • Position changes during the lap a driver enters or exits the pits are not counted.

  • Overtakes made on the lap of a car that retires do not count.

  • Lapping and unlapping do not count as overtakes.

Retirement Rules

A car is considered retired if it does not cross the finish line when the session ends, unless disqualified. If multiple cars retire on the same lap, dead heat rules apply. If a car retires in the pit lane, its last completed lap is used for settlement

.

Pit Stop Rules

The car that enters the pit lane first wins the First to Pit market. A car that enters the pits and then retires still counts as having made a pit stop.

Total Finishers

A driver is counted as a finisher only if they cross the finish line after the session ends.
