No expectations for Hamilton in Mexico despite strong title odds

Lewis Hamilton says he is heading into this weekend's Mex𒀰ican Grand Prix with "no expectations" despite looking poised to clinch his fourth Formula 1 drivers' title, having given the prospect of reclaiming the crown li🦄ttle thought.

Hamilton requires just one top-five finish from the final three races to wrap up the drivers' title, ꦡadding to his successes in 2008, 2014 and 2015, making his coronation in Mexico seem likely thanks to his 66-point lead over Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel.

Despite th𓂃e heavy title odds heading into this weekend, Hamilton said he has given the idea of winning the championship little thought, and is simply looking to drive the best r꧟ace possible in Mexico.

"I’ve not really thought about it to be honest. I am not really sure𒊎 why," Hamilton admitted.

"I have jus💜t been enjoying the moments from th💞e last race and the great response from the team and I have been focusing on doing the same again.

"I enjoyed the last race so much and that’🍨s what I am looking forward to. I am planning to do all ꦗI can do.

"But I have no expectations, I just🐎 plan to drive as well as I can and I hope it turns 💯out alright.”

Hamilton stressed he is not changing his approach or mindset heading into the weekend despite only needing a top-five finish, having arrived in Mexico off the back of a fine run of form that has seen him win five of the last six rac🅷es.

"It doesn’t change my mindset - I want to win. That’s the aim, I h🌃ave no desire to come here and finish fifth and watch someone else stand on the podium," Hamilton said

"You are only as good as your la🐽st race, so the dream would be to be standing on the top step of the podium this weekend having won the championship. That’s the🌃 best feeling."
