Lewis Hamilton admits he felt quite disrespected by how Mercedes dealt with his controversial race tactics in the aftermath of the season-ending Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.

Hamilton said he plans to ask his team to not make any changes heading into 2017.Before next season, Im going to say to Toto, I dont want these guys to be changed. Please just leave us to do our job. I want to keep them all. Theres not a single person who needs to leave.Mercedes meanwhile, continues to deliberate over who will replace Rosberg as Hamiltons new teammate for next season, having confirmed there will be no announcement before January 3.
