Valtteri Bottas admits he was beating himself up last season after losing out to Mercedes teammate Lewis Hamilton.
Bottas is now entering his second year with Mercedes after he was drafted in to replace Nico Rosberg ahead of the 2017 season. With a year of experience under his belt and a new single-year contract in his pocket, Bottas said he will deal with defeat differently in 2018 and look to play to his strengths this season.
"Lewis is a great driver and I should never get upset if he is quicker than me at times," Bottas said.
