However, he is eyeing an uncharted territory of winning eight world championships. The Brit is heading into the final two races with an 8-point deficit to rival Max Verstappen.
If he manages to cover this deficit and win another title, he will certainly enter a territory few people do in their respective sport. However, the Silver Arrows driver says that he is going into this last stretch with a certain calmness in his approach.
