Hamilton in 2014:
Makes the most of Mercedes F1 W05 Hybrid's dominance, taking 11 wins en route to his second world title, though he is pushed all the way by team mate Rosberg, with the championship only decided between the two at the season's final round.
Hamilton in 2013:
Enjoys relatively seamless transition from McLaren to Mercedes, despite difficulties adapting to F1 W04's braking system. Scores one victory, four podiums and five poles en route to fourth in the championship, two places above team mate Nico Rosberg.
Hamilton in 2012:
The MP4-27 may have been competitive, but poor luck means the Briton has to wait until Canada to score his first win of the season. He follows it up with victories in Hungary, Italy and the USA but mechanical gremlins blunt his title charge. Signs to Mercedes for 2013.
Hamilton will give his show in Shanghai International Circuit on April 12, 2015, booking tickets online: www.racing-ticket.com
