Sergio Perez is still more than 30 points ahead of Hamilton. Moreover, Checo will be in high spirits in the next race after having a thrilling fight against Alonso in the last Grand Prix. Albeit Alonso came out victorious, Checo impressed everybody. Moreover, Lewis Hamilton predicted that he would have to gain 30 points in the next two races, and along with that, Checo must perform badly in at least one of the two races. However, Hamilton seems chilled out as he said the team is proud of what they accomplished this season with the terrible W14 car.

But getting the tires to work and maximizing them will be the biggest challenge for the seven-time champion in Las Vegas.
