Valtteri Bottas says he will always do what's best for Mercedes if asked to move over for Lewis Hamilton in the remaining races of 2017.
Bottas is currently 41 points behind Hamilton, who moved ahead of Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel by winning the Italian Grand Prix. With 25 points awarded for a win and seven races left, Bottas' chances of a championship are looking increasingly slim.
Though most in the paddock believe Ferrari is following its traditional approach of favouring one driver, Mercedes has resisted throwing all its weight behind Hamilton while Bottas has been in range of the leaders.
