World Sportsbetting

Had a 1k bet on Perez to be leading after 1st lap. Alonso infringed at the start and got a 5sec penalty as he overlook Perez to be leading after lap 1 with Perez second. I was quite confident that I was going to get paid out due to Alonso jumping the start and infringing. This was posted as a losing bet on my acc. After messaging WSB on their mistake imo Mr France Xaba emailed me with the rules that u have to be leading after lap 1 and Perez was not to be paid out. Surely WSB should honour my bet as Perez wouldhave been leading with Alonso 5sec penalty from the stewards and infringing at the start . Looking forward to your comment here

This is the result from William Hill. They have paid out on Alonso.

I think you might struggle with this one....I see your point though - would Alonso have led had he not jumped the start? - the terms are pretty clear however:

Leader After 1 Lap
For settlement purposes the winner is deemed to be the driver leading the race as they cross the start/finish line after one classified race lap.

Thanks for mesages received. Guess I have to accept this but will be a quick learner on any future bets placed on motorsport
