F1: 5 race predictions ahead of the United States GP

#1 Lewis Hamilton takes the race win

Hamilton could secure his sixth victory at the Circuit of the Americas

Lewis Hamilton loves the Circuit of the Americas: the Briton won five of the six races held at this race track. Moreover, he has managed to take the top step of the podium in the last four races that took place at Austin.

Hamilton continued his fine form at the United States Grand Prix and secured yet another pole position. He just edged it, for the top-3 finishers were separated by less than 0.1 seconds.

Despite Raikkonen’s best efforts, Lewis Hamilton will likely get a fantastic start and would keep the lead at the end of turn one. From there on, one could expect a dominating performance by the British driver, who is likely to secure his fifth consecutive race win.

His victory would be his tenth win of the season, which would virtually guarantee him his fifth world title.

Mercedes’ number-two, Bottas, will start the race from the second row and will try his best to hold Sebastian Vettel behind him throughout the race.
