Lewis Hamilton you are in the last race GP of Turkey secured the title of champion and increased the advantage to 110 points in front of a teammate Valtteri Bottas, and only 78 points are available until the end of the season.

"The fact is, for me, the championship is lost,”He admitted Bottas, who nonetheless said he can take a lot of the positive out of this season. “I was able to improve in many areas. Certainly still too little to win the title, but I will continue to push. There were some unfortunate races where I lost a lot of points. But there were also races where Lewis was better than me and in the end that made a difference." Bottas he said the difference between the two in terms of performance is sometimes a really good line. “Whether it’s the qualifiers or how the race ended depending on what strategy I was striving for or what he was striving for."

Valtteri Bottas believes that despite the big points gap, the difference between him and Lewis Hamilton is not so big. It only lacks consistency in racing at the highest level.

"I know the difference in points looks pretty big now,”He says Bottas. "I couldn’t be consistently at such a high level this year as Lewis, so I think that made a difference. Not much, but enough to win. This is what I will focus on in the future because I seem to be getting better every year. This gives me hope and motivation, so I will work even harder to keep growing, especially for next season." Finn will equal his best result in the championship, which he also achieved last season, but only if he beats in the last three races Max Verstappen. "From my side, of course, the season is not over yet. We still have three races and I can still do a lot and try to achieve a positive end to the season,”So racer Mercedesa.
