When can Lewis Hamilton win his seventh F1 championship?
Lewis Hamilton is on the verge of a record-equaling seventh Formula One world championship.
Hamilton leads Mercedes teammate Valtteri Bottas by 77 points with five races to go, starting with this weekend's Emilia Romagna Grand Prix at Imola. Regardless of what happens, Hamilton cannot secure the championship at Imola.
Should Bottas fail to finish and Hamilton won and claimed the extra point on offer for fastest lap, he would be 103 points ahead with 104 to play for from the final four races.
