Lewis Hamilton says he is not getting carried away with his championship advantage after moving to Formula One’s summit for the first time this season.
Following his victory in China on Sunday, Hamilton moved six points clear of Mercedes team-mate Valtteri Bottas, and is 31 ahead of Ferrari’s Sebastian Vettel, his rival for the past two seasons.
After the opening three races in 2017 and last year, Hamilton was adrift of Vettel by seven and nine points respectively, only to claim the title on both occasions with two rounds remaining.
