How Lewis could pull it back

HOW MANY POINTS ARE UP FOR GRABS? There are four races left this season — USA, Mexico, Brazil and Abu Dhabi — meaning there are a maximum of 100 points available. Hamilton is 33 points behind Rosberg going into tomorrow’s race. CAN HAMILTON STILL RETAIN HIS TITLE? Yes, but if Rosberg scores another 68 points, the championship will be out of reach for the Brit. Rosberg could finish second in each of the remaining four races and still win the title, or he could secure it as early as October 30 if he comes first in the USA and Mexico and Hamilton fails to finish second in both.
