His teammate Valtteri Bottas won this year's Russian Grand Prix, while Red Bull driver Max Verstappen finished as runners-up. 
 
However, reigning Formula One world champion Hamilton is still placed at the top of the Drivers' Championship standings having accumulated 205 points.
 
Bottas remains second on the standings, but the Finnish star is now on 161 points as he looks to beat Hamilton the Formula One world title.
 
While Verstappen is placed third having collected 128 points - 63 points above fourth-placed Lando Norris of McLaren.

Hamilton made some critical comments at the Russian Grand Prix, but he says he is "only human" and has vowed to learn from the frustrating race. 
 
"I may not always get it right in the face of adversity. I may not always react the way you want me to when tensions are high," Hamilton said. 
 
"But I am only human after all and I am passionate about what I do. "I'm learning and growing every day, and I'll take my lessons and keep fighting on to the next one. 
 
"Thank you to those who continue to support and are right there fighting with me. Still we rise."
 
Mercedes are still placed at the top of Constructors' standings followed by second-placed Red Bull and third-placed McLaren-Renault.
