Lewis Hamilton edged ever closer to his second Formula One world title with his victory in Texas last time out, stretching his lead to 24 points over Mercedes team-mate Nico Rosberg.

This weekend sees the penultimate race of the season as the Brazilian Grand Prix takes place at the Interlagos circuit.

Rosberg simply must beat Hamilton this weekend and close the gap on the Englishman to improve his chances of taking the championship at the double-points Abu Dhabi finale.

While the maximum Hamilton can stretch his lead to this weekend is a catchable 49 points, the German will hope his team-mate finishes outside the top 10 on Sunday, in which case a Rosberg victory would see him take the championship lead again by a single point.

While Hamilton does not necessarily need race wins to take the title, the former McLaren man is eager to finish the season strongly, per BBC Sport's Andrew Benson: "I want to win the world championship by winning, rather than finish fifth or wherever. I'm not coming to these last couple of races with a game plan. I want to win."

Hamilton has won five races in a row coming to Sao Paulo and is undoubtedly the driver in form.

Sebastian Vettel won in Brazil last season and will be hoping for a good result this weekend after a relatively poor season.

However, the four-time world champion continues to be out-driven by his rookie team-mate Daniel Ricciardo, who is third in the drivers’ standings and claimed a podium place last time out.

Local boy Felipe Massa will be looking for a strong weekend in front of his home crowd, while his Williams teammate Valtteri Bottas can still catch Ricciardo in the standings.

There will be no Caterham and Marussia teams again this weekend, with the latter's unfortunate demise officially confirmed on Friday, per BBC News.

Caterham, however, are set to compete in the final race in Abu Dhabi...
