'We've done nothing against him'
Mercedes non executive chairman Niki Lauda says the team has "let down" Lewis Hamilton.
He told Sky Sports: "I am really upset about myself and my organisation because we should not let him down with an engine failure. It was a fairly new engine, it was not old in the car. What went wrong I do not know and we will work to correct it".
"I am taking him to Japan tomorrow in my plane. I hope I can bring him up. The championship is over when the last race is over, 23 points is a lot but you never know".
"We have done nothing against him. We have people working for him, we are proud of him and these things happen."

Where will the title be won?

Trying to be impartial so I'll go along with Martin Brunel, a Drive Through would be about right. And a 60 race ban
(he didn't say that bit)
10 second time penalty, what a joke.....
even though I don't like him, I do think it was a bit harsh. Do we think Rosberg whould have chased down the red bulls?
pleased with prediction result, up one place and chasing Andy!
64 points! Shocker and my worst result this season thus far!
I must be nuts, just woken up to watch free practice and and qualifying of the Jap GP.

Little bit of light at the end of the tunnel for me for tomorrow.....
Vettel to start seventh after penalty
Vettel will start seventh tomorrow as a result of the three-place penalty he received for that first-corner crash in Malaysia.
That means Verstappen will start fourth, Ricciardo fifth and Perez sixth.
