Mercedes have already wrapped up the 2019 Constructors’ championship. However, there are still three races left, and a driver’s championship to decide. Lewis Hamilton will most likely win the title at the US Grand Prix 2019 from teammate Valtteri Bottas. This weekend, the drivers and teams will be heading to the Circuit of the Americas for the race.

The US Grand Prix was first introduced to the Formula One calendar in 1959. Back then, the venue was the Sebring International Raceway. It was only from 2012 onwards, that the Circuit of the Americas became the permanent fixture of the US Grand Prix.

Lewis Hamilton is the most successful driver out of the current grid, with 6 wins. This circuit seems to suit the Mercedes, since they have the most wins at COTA.
