Mercedes driver Lewis Hamilton has admitted that Sebastian Vettel is so dominant in the Formula One that he has nothing to look forward to but Christmas.
According to the Mirror, Hamilton is hoping that his team can get all of their bad luck out of the way now and enjoy a good year in 2014.
After the German battled to the most ugly of his five successive victories here in Japan, the Mercedes man smiled weakly as he admitted that he was looking forward to Christmas, the report said.
Vettel's front wing tore a hole in Hamilton's rear right tyre, the report added.
The British driver even said that he could not be more unlucky than that after he had a better start than the Red Bulls for the first time ever, adding that it was not meant to be and not Vettel's fault as he just drove straight on.
