Lewis Hamilton has revealed that he has no intention of leaving behind his aggressive style of racing, despite failing to finish the last two Grand Prix races.
The 2008 champion crashed out of the race in Singapore last weekend after a collision with Mark Webber.
This was the second consecutive race that Hamilton had failed to finish and not picking up points has seen him slip to third in the title race behind Webber and Spaniard Fernando Alonso.
However the Brit remains upbeat about his chances and has not intention of changing the way that he drives.
He said: “I’m a racer. I always race my heart out, and nothing will ever change that.”
“There were different circumstances behind each incident.” FemaleFirst.co.uk
The Herts-born star has seen his championship hopes suffer a double whammy after he crashed out in Italy and then Singapore.
He has dropped to third - 20 points behind Webber - with Alonso now second just 11 points adrift heading to next Sunday’s Japanese Grand Prix in Suzuka.
Vettel is fourth, 21 points off his team-mate, with reigning champ Button four points further back with only 100 points left to play for.
But Hamilton insisted: “It’s normal that, at the end of a season, the mind games begin.
“I’m strong enough and ready for it. I’m not worried, but I think it’s best if you just do your talking on the track.” News of the World
Hamilton finished third at Suzuka last year - his first Formula One race at the legendary circuit - when McLaren were outpaced by the likes of Red Bull and Toyota. This season, the former champion is out to make amends.
“Suzuka is very much unfinished business for me,” he said. “I raced the best I could last year, but our car just wasn’t fast enough. This year, I’m holding nothing back - I need a strong result to get my title hopes back on track, and that will be my complete focus from the moment I first sit in the cockpit on Friday morning.” Formula 1
