Defending champion, Lewis Hamilton, says he feels ‘relaxed’ heading into formula one’s Abu Dhabi title-decider on Sunday.

Hamilton lies 12 points behind his Mercedes team mate, Nico Rosberg, in the overall standings, who only needs a podium finish in Abu Dhabi to become German’s third world champion after Michael Schumacher and Sebastian Vettel.

Four of the 28-year-old’s 9 wins this season, came with Rosberg off the podium as a result that if repeated Sunday would hand him the title.
