Lewis Hamilton is refusing to give up on the F1 Championship
Consecutive victories for Hamilton in America and Mexico have enabled him to close the gap on his Mercedes team-mate to 19 points.
But with only two races remaining, starting with the Brazilian Grand Prix on Sunday, the title tussle remains firmly in Rosberg’s hands.
Hamilton is reliant on Rosberg finishing at least one of the penultimate rounds in fourth or lower.

The German could even be crowned champion in Brazil if he wins for a third consecutive time at the Interlagos track.
But a defiant Hamilton said: “In terms of the championship, it’s an unusual scenario to be in – fighting for something and not knowing for sure that what you do will guarantee you’re able to make it.

"One outcome would be painful and the other would be a great achievement. Regardless, I’m going to keep pushing.
“Since the beginning of my Formula One career I’ve seen that everything can change even at the very last moment, so you have to fight to the bitter end.”
