If you're looking at winning a bit of money on this weekends Spanish Grand Prix, the sixth round of the 2006 world championship, then here's the RealHondaF1.com Tipster's Guide...

There's still little point on betting on race favourites Fernando Alonso and Michael Schumacher, as the odds are so short, while Honda stars Jenson Button and Rubens Barrichello is unlikely to figure much, however tempting the prices may be. Putting some cash towards the Williams of Mark Webber and Nico Rosberg at an astonishing 66/1 could prove to be a small risk for some potentially big rewards, especially as their Bridgestone tyres should suit the conditions well. An each way bet on either Toyota driver could also reap some reasonable payouts - don't forget that Ralf Schumacher made it to the podium recently.

Beyond that, there's no brave bets to be had. Other than the midfield possiblities detailed above, it's either low price certainties or high price outsiders. Best to keep hold of your money, unless you're happy with taking home a very small payment.

If you do fancy a bet, you can go straight to the William Hill online betting shop.
