LEWIS HAMILTON admitted his Qatar Grand Prix could only have been worse if he had failed to finish.
He failed to score a point, crossing the line 12th after his race was ruined by a puncture and two penalties.

His evening in Losail was so terrible that Jenson Button in commentary was worried his old McLaren team-mate might not turn up in Abu Dhabi for his Mercedes farewell. But Hamilton confirmed he will be there and said: "I don't think we will end on a high... it will just end. What's important is that we turn up and give it our best shot.
