Combat & motorsport

One result ends a fight or a race, and a back-and-lay market prices it from both sides. This section covers the markets that grow around that single outcome.

In boxing, MMA and UFC the markets are winner, method and round; in Formula 1, NASCAR and general motorsport they run to podium places and fastest laps, and cycling belongs alongside.

Athlete endorsements in betting adverts are policed by the CAP Code: nobody who is, or looks, under 25 may be shown gambling or given a significant role. The rule governs who may feature in an ad. Who may bet is a separate matter, answered by the age of 18.
