This market will resolve to “Yes” if the listed driver finishes within the top three positions in the official "Final Classification" for the F1 Chinese Grand Prix, scheduled for Mar 15, 2026. Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No.”

The "Final Classification" is published by the FIA following the conclusion of the race and includes any applied time penalties and official adjustments. It is typically released 30-60 minutes after the race ends.

Disqualifications or changes made after the publication of the "Final Classification" will not affect market resolution. The timing of the podium ceremony does not determine the result for this market — only the FIA's published classification will be used to resolve this market.

If the Chinese Grand Prix is postponed, this market will remain open until the event has been completed. If the Chinese Grand Prix is permanently canceled, this market will resolve 50-50.
