Ladbrokes previews the 2026 Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix, with odds, key details, and predictions
Kimi Antonelli backed to win a sixth consecutive race, joining an exclusive club
Max Verstappen tipped to finish on the podium despite last week's disaster in Monaco

As the 2026 Formula One season really starts to take shape, Ladbrokes previews the Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix, where Kimi Antonelli hunts a sixth consecutive win.
Only five men have ever achieved that feat in F1, so the prospect of the teenager joining such an elite, exclusive club so early in his career really is incredible - and Ladbrokes is backing him to do it, with the young Italian favourite to take the chequered flag this weekend.
We can't wait for the Formula One action to resume, so get in the mood with our detailed Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix race preview below - and don't forget to read our 2026 season preview!

After picking up his fifth consecutive win in Monaco last week, Kimi Antonelli is once again the bookies' favourite ahead of the Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix, with the teenager already building up a dominant lead at the top of the Drivers' Standings.
His Mercedes teammate George Russell is second-favourite according to Ladbrokes' latest odds, but since winning the season opener, the Englishman has only featured on a single podium, so there's already plenty of ground to make up on his junior driver.
Max Verstappen enters the weekend off the back of a nightmare Monaco Grand Prix, where he sacrificed the race lead on the start line, but remains in the conversation to pick up a first win of the season in Barcelona - which would break the chain of Mercedes winning every race so far in 2026.
McLaren pair Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri come next, ahead of Ferrari duo Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton - who climbed up to second in the Drivers' Standings with his second-place finish in Monaco.
We made the mistake last week of predicting Kimi Antonelli to finish second despite his blistering form, so we won't be doing that again - with the teenager making history in our Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix predictions, winning his sixth race in a row.
