Favorites
Francesco Bagnaia (Odds +333)
The first favorite according to sportsbooks is Francesco Bagnaia. This driver has won 6 of the last 11 races, including four in a row, from the Dutch Grand Prix to the San Marino Grand Prix. Regarding the last two races, he came second in the Aragon GP, in addition to being the poleman, and withdrew from last week’s Japanese GP.
Jack Miller (Odds +400)
Because of his recent victory in the Japanese Grand Prix, Jack Miller is our second favorite. The Australian is in fifth place in the Drivers’ Championship thanks to his overall consistency and 6 podium positions this season (3 third places, one second and one win).
Marc Márquez (Odds +400)
Despite his injury-filled season, Marc Márquez returned to MotoGP on September 18 this year for the Aragon Grand Prix, from which he had to withdraw due to an accident. However, he has got back to his feet and in the last contest he finished in fourth position and won the Pole. This gives him a good feeling ahead of the Thai GP.
Sleeper Picks
Fabio Quartararo (Odds +550)
On the other hand, we have Fabio Quartararo, the current leader of the Drivers’ Championship. Although he is at the top of the table, since the Dutch Grand Prix his performance has dropped a bit and he has retired twice and reached the podium on one occasion with a second place. Nevertheless, his dominance throughout the season stands out, which is why he is among our sleeper picks.
Enea Bastianini (Odds +700)
Now, Enea Bastianini has had four victories including the Qatar, Americas, France and Aragon GPs. In addition, he obtained a second place on the podium at the San Marino GP along with the fastest lap. These recent placings give him a great chance to dominate the Thai GP.
Dark Horse
Aleix Espargaró (Odds +900)
Finally, Spain’s Aleix Espargaró is our dark horse. This rider is third in the Drivers’ Championship standings, and in Japan he obtained his first position outside the top 10 in the whole season. Despite this, he came in third place in Aragon.

JefeBet Prediction
All things considered, the rider with the best conditions and odds to win the Thai GP is Francesco Bagnaia. The Italian, despite having retired in Japan, achieved a streak of four consecutive podium finishes that is unlikely to be equaled this season. Therefore, he is the one selected to win this contest.
