    Got scorched, I'd say.

    "December 6th 2021: This is only the second time in F1 history that
    there has been a DriversrCO points tie heading into the final race. While Verstappen leads the Championship thanks to his extra race win over
    Hamilton, the bookies have once again shortened the BritonrCOs odds to
    make him the firm favourite."

    Yep. HAM 71% to 34%, or scaled as of December 8th, 64% to 36% -- yikes!

    Some of the biggest losers will have been "in play" bets, especially
    on the exchanges.

    Before the crash the odds on Verstappen could have been very long.
