They are racing for 10th place. If they were racing for a world championship, it would change rapidly, mark my words.

The track is pretty cool. There are just some safety concerns at a few places like the pit entry, which we have to look into.

The track looks great, the place is great. A little bit of a concern with those run-offs. There are two or three which are really not looking good. That’s not great, i really trust the (governing) FIA to get the job done, they have all the calculations and simulations. They know exactly the speeds.

I've had two really great weekends now in Mexico and Brazil, so I'm heading into the final race on a massive high.

Of course, it will be close as always with Lewis and we saw a big push from Ferrari in Sao Paulo, so it won't be straightforward. But I'm up for a battle and hopefully we can put on a great show for the fans to end the year.

I didn't try and push Lewis Hamilton out, it wasn't intentional, i don't feel like I was aggressive. At the end of the day I was on the inside so it was actually my line.

It's clear that the title is a long shot for me now. But it's not in me to give up or back down, so I'll be pushing flat out to the end and hopefully having some fun out there in the final few rounds this year, austin is definitely somewhere that you can have fun too...I got pole there last year, and I'm coming off the back of a really strong weekend in Russia in terms of my performance, so if I can repeat all of that then I'll be in a good position.

They are a threat and we do take them very seriously, they have been a threat at various times throughout the whole season.

With the new start situation, and we're having to do everything ourselves now, there's a lot more opportunity tomorrow even at the start, on the run down to turn five here it is possible to overtake so my hopes are for sure still alive.

It's much more than we've seen recently, much more than Bahrain, much more than Shanghai, Malaysia, so it's really a big step in the right direction for us, it just shows that we have an awesome team at the moment, everybody's doing a fantastic job... again we won the development race this weekend, compared to Ferrari. So that's an important indication for the rest of the season.

I spoke to (Mercedes motorsport head) Toto (Wolff) and (technical head) Paddy (Lowe) about an invitation for Sebastian and they are easy with it, dear Seb, this is the official invitation to join our debrief Friday 16.00 at Sepang. See you there, don't forget your notebook!.

I think in the next couple of races we’re going to be leading the way for sure, and we’re going to try and keep it that way, but we know it would be good if they can come a bit closer, as long as they don’t come too close.

Half of me –- or a part of me –- thinks about the show because I want to give people a great time at home watching on TV or at the track. If you do come a bit closer, that would be awesome for everybody.

Today was a difficult day to start with but ended on a positive, during the early runs, even though the numbers looked like they were in the right place with the setup, it was actually very far away from where it needed to be, which was unusual and caught us off guard a little bit.

The Williams...was actually looking pretty good at some points today, Of course I'm hoping they're closer. .

We made good steps forward with the setup but, as always, there is still more time to be found. We'll keep chipping away at it and look to improve in every area possible but the car feels great, It's the best I've ever driven here without doubt...when you know you have a package as competitive as ours it's like being a kid at Christmas.

Lewis can do something to keep it clean which is drive cleanly himself, So it's not like he can't do anything.

We're not children, we should know what is wrong and what is right.

It's very, very special for me. This is where I've grown up, it's my home, and winning the Monaco Grand Prix is the highlight of any racing driver's career and for me a childhood dream. It being my home makes it all the more special, unbelievable.

No matter how good a driver you are, you have to have the right car and the right team behind you in order to succeed.

good you car team
