Bottas believes Mercedes result in Mexico shows the "team is still hungry"
- Tom Mason
Valtteri Bottas has said that the results which the team secured in Mexico show just how much hunger there is within the Mercedes workforce. The constructors' championship was secured last weekend but the battle for the title is just about going with Lewis Hamilton 74 points ahead with three races to go.
Bottas claimed a third-place finish while his teammate Hamilton won the race despite starting third on the grid.
"Yesterday, both Red Bull and Ferrari had the upper hand, but we've really been strong on Sundays this year and ultimately that's the day that matters, " Bottas said after the race.
"We secured the Constructors' Championship in the last race, but today's result shows that this team is still hungry and I'm really happy that all the hard work from everyone in Brackley and Brixworth paid off today."
