LONDON:


Lewis Hamilton believes he and teammate Jenson Button can lead McLaren to a treble of top finishes in the last three races of the Formula One season.


Despite the domination of Red Bull and their double world champion Sebastian Vettel, Hamilton reckons it is McLaren’s time to turn the tables in the final races in India, Abu Dhabi and Brazil.

“I think we’re set to be competitive,” he said. “We were quick in Singapore, Japan and Korea — and I think the pattern at the front has sort of settled down now. We’ve a car that can be quick anywhere so I’d like to think we’d be in the hunt again in India.”

His teammate, Button, said he is also confident of success.

“Our car’s been competitive and we’d like to win more races before the season ends,” he said. “We just have to focus and go all out.”
