Mercedes driver Lewis Hamilton will be looking to continue his dominance at the United States Grand Prix where he has won a record six titles.
 
The British superstar was unlucky not to win one of his favourite races in 2019 as he finished second behind race winner and his teammate Valtteri Bottas.
 
Hamilton endured a disappointing race in the most recent race this season which was the Turkish Grand Prix on October 10 as he finished fifth.

Bottas won the Turkish Grand Prix, while the Red Bull Racing-Honda duo of Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez finished second and third respectively. 
 
Verstappen is now placed at the top of this year's Drivers' Championship standings as he looks to win the Formula One world title for the first time. 
 
Hamilton, who is the current Formula One world champion, is placed second on the standings, while Bottas sitting third on the table as they look to catch Verstappen.
 
A victory at the United States Grand Prix for Hamilton will see him return to the top of the standings with five races left this season.

"We live and we learn. We win and we lose as a team. Don't ever expect me to be all polite and calm on the radio when I'm racing," Hamilton said after the Turkish Grand Prix. 
 
"We are all very passionate and in the heat of the moment that passion can come out, as it does for all drivers. My heart and spirit are out there on the track.
 
"It's the fire in me that's got me this far but any angst is quickly forgotten and we talked it through, already looking ahead to the next race. Today's another day to rise and as a team. Still, we rise."
 
Mercedes are placed at the top of the Constructors' Championship standings and they are followed by Red Bull Racing-Honda and McLaren-Mercedes respectively.
