Lewis in pressure

"I lost the championship in 1981, 1982, 1983, 1984 by a few points and at one time, I said to myself it must be that I cannot win the championship - and then I won it four times later on.

"If you have everything together, you have plenty of time."Prost predicted Hamilton's closest challengers would come from the Ferrari and Renault teams."The Ferrari will always be there, so we don't know about Kimi Raikkonen and Felipe Massa - it depends on whether Kimi has the same motivation or not," he said."Fernando Alonso will be just a little bit behind, but quite close."

The key for Hamilton, whose season gets under way in Melbourne on March 16, would be how he coped with the pressure of expectation on him this season.We are going to see how he (Lewis Hamilton) is going to handle this extra pressure," said Prost.
