I can say Hamilton has the biggest chance of winning as BBC SPOTY 2019. His record in the past year and in the past few months are stellar. Plus, his fan base is so huge. There are several Facebook groups about him, and his followers on Twitter are actively behind him. Add to this the fact that he's already won as BBC SPOTY before and that he's the most popular among the top 5 on the list — you may not go wrong if you bet on Lewis Hamilton.

Well, it's not a contest of beauty. Being pleasant personality is important thing, but I think that their sports achievements is the most important thing in these elections. Offcourse, Dina Asher Smith is great athlete, no doubt about it.

According to BBC statements : This award goes to the sportsperson whose actions have most captured the UK public's imagination during 2018. This means the winner doesn't necessarily have to be the person who had the highest achievements this year. The winner will be choose by people and not by a jury so probably the most popular in the list will win this award.

If I am going to place my bet, I'd go with either 3 or 5. They're the only ones who do not have any controversies. That would be my first basis though I haven't watch them play. But just by looking on their achievemets listed, it's easy to say that they are really good athletes.

However, it is said that the most popular will win. So that could mean they will win regardless of the controversies. I don't know who's popular in UK but if I have to pick one, I'm gonna go with Hamilton because I like to watch racing including F1. And based on the link given on the op, I think Hamilton was the only one who has already been the BBC Sports Personality way back 2014. Maybe he could make a come back this year, right?

Hamilton's always been a pretty good candidate. He has a stellar record, a huge name, and a big fan base in the world of sports not only in the UK but also around the world.

Raheem Sterling doesn't deserve such award,because he's not the best player of Manchester City.
I don't think that a collective sports athlete will win.My votes go for Joshua or maybe Lewis Hamilton,but I won't bet any money on it. Grin

I don't think Raheem Sterling to have the popularity Lewis Hamilton has in the UK.I think Lewis is the favourite to win this award because he is the most well known of the figures presented by BBC this year.He is an ambassador of UK throughout the world.

All the best for Raheem Sterling! Long live people of color who excel in the fields of endeavor they chose!

Sounds like Raheem Sterling is having some of his own personal issues:

Who thinks race or color will play a factor in the selection of the BBC SPOTY 2019? I mean, you know, Asher Smith and Sterling are both of color. Do you think these sports figures will have less chance?

Sterling COULD win it due to speaking out about racism he’s suffered. I mean he had a great season but people in the UK are weak when it comes to hearing about racism. I don’t think Sterling suffered anything bad, it’s a lot worse in Eastern Europe. He could win due to playing the race card, it might give him the edge.

I don't deny the existence of biasness but Color is a much less issue in the UK and the Europe. And women too share much more equality than most parts of the world. I guess color could be a issue in US or anywhere else but would be a much smaller issue in UK and the europe.

I agree. People in the UK seem to not like to practice the Trump culture of discrimination.

And to think that some of the stronger contenders for the BBC SPOTY 2019 award are people of color, I don't see any reason why we should be worried about biases based on one's skin.

But since the selection of the winner is via public voting, we can't do away with a few people who'll vote according to color. Sometimes, the racism issue goes both ways. Black favors black. White favors white. Why don't we just do "white favors the deserving" and "black favors the deserving"?

That's the problem, we can't deny the fact that this mentality still exist favoring colors over another instead of choosing the deserving winners who
really did well from their respective talents, voting system should be according to what contributions they bring to their specific industry and excel
from other personalities.

Of course they will. I don't mean to sound racist or blame anyone but when it comes to voting, women and color has always been in disadvantage. Specially women. There could be some exception but this is generally true for almost all awards decided by vote.

I don't think that race or skin color is a factor there. I don't see any reasons why Asher Smith, Raheem Sterling or Lewis Hamilton may have less chance to win. Especially when BBC SPOTY was previously won by dark skinned people like Hamilton or Sr. Mo Farah.
BTW, There is new favorite according to sportsbooks to win this award, it's Ben Stokes. Well, I haven't heard his name before...

I vote for Lewis Hamilton, he is best racing man, i don't think we will see anyone better than him in the coming generation, because i read an article about him that he is considered the best driver of the generation. So my voting is always for him.

Lewis Hamilton and Raheem Sterling are the favorites as they have huge fan following in England. On the other hand, I consider individuals like Tyson Fury and Ronnie O’Sullivan more talented than Hamilton and Sterling, but they lack the star power. Ronnie has definitely dropped out of the favorites list, after his loss to James Cahill in April.

Much can still change as the official nomination will happen later this year. But the list above shows much about who can highly possibly be nominated or awarded this year.

Compared to the five players that are nominated for the award Lewis Hamilton is quite popular and has a good winning year. As football has the increased viewers the result will be mostly for Raheem Sterling. Joe Root is an important contributor to the England cricket team, but there is low possibility to win the award. It is good to have a girl listed to the nomination list, I'll support Dina or Lewis.

Lewis Hamilton has also had a great wining streak in 2018 and 19. This makes him one of the favorite for wining the award. He is a brand for formula 1 racing in UK.
Cricket and Football do have competing players and hence the two listing are less likely to win. Voting has never favored a women so, its finally Tyson Fury vs Lewis Hamilton.

Lewis really has a huge chance. And among the 5, he's the only OBE.

And his latest win - French Grand Prix - in June 2019 added much to his odds of winning BBC SPOTY 2019! I think I'm betting on this man.
