Mercedes' Lewis Hamilton will look to put the disappointment of the United States Grand Prix behind him as he turns his attention to the Mexican Grand Prix on Sunday, October 29.
 
The Brit delivered his best drive of the season to finish just 2.225 seconds behind race winner Max Verstappen in Austin, Texas after the Silver Arrows received their final upgrade package for 2023 in the USA.
 
However, Hamilton was subsequently disqualified for failing a post-race plank test, which saw P2 go to McLaren's Lando Norris and Ferrari's Carlos Sainz Jr completed the podium.

It meant that the 38-year-old slipped further behind Red Bull Racing's Sergio Perez in the race for the runners-up spot in the Drivers' Championship, with the gap now standing at 39 points.
 
Hamilton was denied what would have been his sixth podium of the campaign, but he remains optimistic for the final four races with the new floor that has been installed in the W14.
 
"It is of course disappointing to be disqualified post-race, but that doesn't take away from the progress we've made this weekend," he said.
 
"We had good pace and I was feeling great in the car. It was tough racing those around me as they were so quick, but we can be happy with many things.
 
"I feel positive as we're moving forward, even if reflecting on it we could have possibly won."
