Hamilton motivated by bad luck, as F1 heads to Singapore
World Championship contender Lewis Hamilton says he is motivated by the small gap that separates him and Nico Rosberg, despite his poor luck this year.
Hamilton had suffered dreadful reliability issues with problems arriving in some form almost every weekend.
However, he is only 22 points behind his rival and team-mate, Nico Rosberg, and considers himself fortunate to be so close.
“Despite the highs and lows, I’m still well and truly in the hunt for the Championship and that is something that gives me huge motivation for the final six races- starting in Singapore.”
“It’s a street circuit and I love street circuits. I won there in 2009 which was a really special experience, plus I had a podium- which should really have been a win- at the first race in 2008. My luck hasn’t been great at this circuit since then but hopefully that will change next weekend.”
The season is now in the final stretch, after completing the European section. The final six ‘fly-away’ races include trips to Japan, USA, Brazil and a first ever race in Russia.
