# 10 things Hamilton must do to ensure victory in Mexico

With just three races to go in the titanic championship fight between Mercedes’ teammates Nico Rosberg and Lewis Hamilton, the F1 circus arrives in Mexico City for the Mexican Grand Prix.

It’s another must-win race for the reigning triple world champion who is currently 26 points behind his German teammate.

The British superstar has to win all of the remaining three races and hope Rosberg fails to finish on the podium in at least one of the races to become champion again. His biggest opportunity to achieve that would come with the Red Bull Racing duo and the two Ferraris getting in the mix.

Consequently, this means the championship is Rosberg’s to lose but Hamilton must do all he can to put as much pressure as possible on the 31-year-old who has previously shown that he isn’t immune to pressure.

Rosberg won the Mexican Grand Prix last year when the race returned to the calendar for the first time since 1992, so here’s 10 things Hamilton must do to ensure he makes this weekend’s Mexican Grand Prix becomes win number 51.
