China has bet on the Winter Olympics to go ahead relatively smoothly despite all the current difficulties. The opening ceremonies will be spectacular, the competition intense and they’ll all harp on about the unity of contest. Of course, those who regularly bet on sports in China at Bet365 won’t fall for this. They talk peace and humanity but the Olympics continue to be a very suspect celebration of killing skills. One will only need to watch the Biathlon to prove that true.

Just to see which, if either of them, might provide divine assistance the next time we put a bet on sports in China at Bet365. You never know.

However, the sport has already hit the headlines as the current situation forces the authorities to cancel the race in Shanghai. Online betting sites in China will take a hit over that, and it might not be the last race to get the chop. So, anyone planning to bet on F1 in 2020 will have to be a tad cautious when picking individual race winners. But that still leaves plenty of odds on F1 worth picking up.
