Abu Dhabi, Nov 27 (IANS) 2017 Formula One World Champion Lewis Hamilton said he was not concerned about his losses in the final two races of the season.

Hamilton, who won nine races in the 2017 season to secure the title, failed to clinch the top podium finish in the Brazilian and Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.

“I have zero concerns,” the four-time Formula One World Champion was quoted saying by Sky Sports on Sunday.

“It is clear that something happens after you win the championship. All l can say is that the week after l won the championship I partied a lot. I celebrated because that is what you do. That definitely was not the case before the other races,” Hamilton added.

The 32-year-old finished the 2017 Formula One drivers standings with 363 points, above Ferrari’s Sebastian Vettel (317) and Mercedes-AMG team-mate Valtteri Bottas (305).

Sunil Gavaskar gives his opinion of GT allrounder Rahul Tewatia

The left-handed batsman from Haryana is garnering praise from all quarters for the way he’s finishing games regularly in the most exciting IPL season.

Gavaskar reckons Tewatia’s whirlwind knock in Sharjah (in IPL 2020) where he smashed West Indies pacer Sheldon Cottrell for five sixes in an over, gave him the confidence that he belongs to the big stage.

Speaking on Cricket Live on Star Sports, Gavaskar said, “That assault on Sheldon Cottrell in Sharjah gave him the belief to do the impossible and the confidence that he belongs here. We saw the impossible (he did with the bat) the other day as well. There’s no twitching or touching the pads (which shows a batter’s nervousness) when he bats in the death overs. He just waits for the ball to be delivered and plays his shots. He’s got all the shots in the book, but most importantly his temperament to stay cool in a crisis is brilliant.”

Gavaskar has also nicknamed the 28-year-old cricketer the ‘ice-man’ and lauded Tewatia’s ability to remain unruffled during the tense moments.
