No one knows whether Hamilton actually lost fair and square this year. Just look at the engine problems he had vs what Rosberg had. Hamilton is inside Mercedes's F1 team, of course he would know more than us pundits. 

Put Rosberg in a 2nd tier Ferrari or Red Bull and he would not even be close to matching what Ricardo or Vettel or Versteppen did. 

Hamilton on the other proved that he can win races even with not a top tier car over the years.
