Virtual Speedway Betting Reviews
Now that you know where you can find virtual speedway betting, you will probably want to know which of the different options you should go for. To help you in making that choice we’ve taken a closer look at all of the potential top bookies with virtual speedway, picked out our three favourites and produced reviews explaining what sets them apart from the rest.
#1 For Virtual Speedway – Coral
Claiming the top spot in our countdown of the three best virtual speedway betting sites, Coral offer what is the most well-rounded such service of any of the major online bookmakers who provide virtual speedway betting options.
The virtual speedway betting opportunities provided by Coral can be quickly and easily accessed through the site’s dedicated virtual sports section, which also includes a multitude of other virtual sports alternatives, such as horse racing, greyhound racing and football.
Focussing specifically on speedway, Coral run a fictional race at their ‘Rapid Park’ speedway track every five minutes and make it really simple to place a bet on any of the upcoming races. It is only race winner bets which are possible but, unlike most other bookmakers, Coral do allow punters to place both win and each-way bets.
Once each race is underway, the virtual action is shown as live via a stream at the top of the Coral virtual speedway page. Each stream offers impressive and attractive 3D graphics with realism that is then matched by that of the accompanying audio commentary.

#2 For Virtual Speedway – William Hill
Rating as our second favourite virtual speedway betting site, William Hill is another bookmaker which includes speedway amongst a variety of different virtual sports options, which also include other motorsports alternatives.
The bookmaker’s virtual speedway betting service sees races run every four minutes at William Hill’s fictional ‘Broadside Alley’ track. Just like Coral, too, those races are always broadcast as live on the virtual speedway page of the bookmaker’s website in the form of really watchable and entertaining 3D animations which are always accompanied by a great audio commentary track.
In common with Coral, too, it is only a race winner market which is offered to William Hill punters for each virtual speedway race. What places William Hill below Coral on our countdown, however, is the fact that William Hill do not allow each-way bets for their virtual speedway contests.

#3 For Virtual Speedway – BetVictor
Rounding off our top trio of options, BetVictor is another site which ranks as a top destination for punters looking for any kind of virtual sports betting.
When it comes to virtual speedway specifically, BetVictor do not run quite as many races as either William Hill or Coral but do still have a race every nine minutes at their fictional ‘World Arena’ speedway track, and hold those races 24 hours a day. For all of those races, BetVictor allow punters to place simple outright wagers on the race winner.
As and when each of those races starts, too, a ‘live’ stream of the action appears at the head of the virtual speedway betting page and displays the race with the help of good quality 3D graphics. Boosting the realism and entertainment value of each race still farther, what’s more, great sound effects and commentary also accompany the action.

Bet Type FAQ
As may have already become apparent the number of different betting options and types of bet available when it comes to virtual speedway are actually pretty limited. In fact, even the very best virtual speedway betting sites like those we reviewed above, still generally only offer the following market:
Race Winner – The simplest and most straightforward betting option possible, it is a race winner market which is typically all that is offered by every online bookmaker with virtual speedway betting. That means that in general punters only have the option of betting on the winner of each race, but Coral do also allow for each-way bets on the market in spite of the small number of riders in each race.
