How F1 world Championship Can Be Won By Lewis Hamilton At The UnitedStates GP

Lewis Hamilton is on the verge of being crowned Formula One world champion once again. However, there are certain things he needs to do to cross the finishing line this weekend.

Hamilton is in pole position to win it for an incredible fifth time and heads Stateside to seal it up on Sunday at the United States Grand Prix.

The 33-year-old is closing in with a surely insurmountable 67-point lead over nearest rival Sebastian Vettel.

But will he secure the Championship in Texas? No doubt, the odds are certainly in his favour after another superb campaign at the wheel.

If Lewis Hamilton claims the chequered flag and Vettel doesn't take second place, the Mercedes driver will secure the title.

The Brit, who is undefeated on American soil since 2013 -with three rounds left, wants to get the champagne flowing at the Circuit of the Americas.

That might be inevitable if he outscores his Ferrari rival by eight points regardless of position.

Arguably, Hamilton is at its best form ever, but it will surely require a top two position for Vettle - baring disaster of course for a man who already has nine wins this season.

Come Sunday, the German knows history is not on his side on as he tried to prevent Hamilton from winning a fourth world title in five years.

The Englishman has won five of the six races he has competed in in Texas. Those include four on the bounce between 2014 and 2017.

Hamilton is hoping to equal Argentine legend Juan Manuel Fangio on five world titles. Only Michael Schumacher has more with seven titles.

Ferrari have vowed to complete Mission Impossible despite the outlook appearing bleak.

Maurizio Arrivabene, the team principal said: "I know that the situation looks impossible, but our job sometimes is to challenge the impossible. This is what we are going to try to do, and we win and we lose together."

Hamilton's Mercedes boss Toto Wolff has also warned his driver that the title is not yet a done deal.

"He is showing commanding performance in the car and challenging the entire team to perform to higher levels at the same time,"

"It's far from over," he said. "The Circuit of the Americas has been a good track for us ever since it was introduced in the F1 calendar but past results have no impact on the current championship.

"Everyone in the team knows that we cannot take anything for granted, so we will be as diligent as ever, keep our heads down and work hard to get a good result in Texas.

"This championship fight has been exhilarating and we can't wait for the next chapter in the epic battle of silver and red."
