Newly crowned world champion Lewis Hamilton has thanked his fans, family and team for helping him become a three-time champion.

Hamilton won the US Grand Prix after a late mistake from Nico Rosberg to equal Ayrton Senna's three world titles.

The 30-year-old is the first Englishman to have won back-to-back titles.

He said: "I want to say a huge thank you to the crowd, staying out through the rain. Hopefully we put on a good show for you.

"I can't find the words to explain how this feels. I couldn't have done it without this team. I love you guys and everything you do for me. For all my family, I love you all."

There are three races left this season in Mexico, Brazil and Abu Dhabi, and then Hamilton will come back to try and win a fourth next season.
