Briton Lewis Hamilton believes he has put together his best season in his Formula One career as he chases the drivers' title with Mercedes in 2014.
Hamilton leads team-mate Nico Rosberg by three points heading into Sunday's Japanese Grand Prix.
The BBC quoted him, as saying that this season has been his most consistent and best performing, and adding that he would like to continue building on it with a good work ethic.
Hamilton has won the last two races in Italy and Singapore to overturn a 29-point deficit to team-mate Rosberg.
He described Nico as a strong and confident competitor.
Hamilton's target is to win at Suzuka this weekend, on the track many regard as the greatest challenge for a racing driver.
