Mercedes boss Toto Wolff insists Lewis Hamilton performs at his best when the pressure is on, and is expecting the title race to go down to the wire. Blidi Wreh-Wilson Jersey . Hamiltons championship hopes have taken two devastating blows in the last week, retiring with an engine failure in Malaysia before finishing third in Japan to allow team-mate Nico Rosberg to stretch his lead to 33 points.The Martin Brundle column: Finding the real Lewis Hamilton But Wolff was quick to point out the many changes of momentum so far this season, and claims the Brit has proved in the past that he can recover when his back is against the wall.Lewis is going to regroup, hes very strong, said Wolff. He needs the enemy, sometimes more than one, thats just how he functions. Hes at his best when hes under pressure, when he has a target.I have no doubt that this is going to be an intense fight until the end. The world champion may be able to take solace from his previous comebacks in 2016. Rosberg held a 43-point advantage following the Russian and Spanish grands prix before Hamilton won six of the next seven races to take the title lead into the summer break.But with victories in all of the remaining four races of the season still not necessarily enough for Hamilton, the Brit realistically needs his team-mate to encounter mechanical problems at least once.Nico is doing everything right at the moment, admitted Mercedes non-executive chairman Niki Lauda. If everything is going normal, the championship could be decided in the next few races, and Lewis wont be able to catch Nico any more.This is perfectly clear to me. If nothing happens to either car, I dont think Lewis will be able to turn it around again. Lewis Hamiltons dad insists disappointments on the track and distractions off it wont distract the Formula One world champions bid to retain the title Hamilton flew back to Europe from Japan with Wolff and Lauda on Sunday night, but the Mercedes team boss said they would not be dissecting the events of Suzuka with Hamilton straight away. Problems both on and off the track, namely another disastrous start and a media row, marred the Brits Japanese GP weekend.We need to calm down and find out what happened, regroup, added Wolff. In my learning from the last couple of years, 24 hours later things look completely different than they appear an hour after the race. So our main emphasis will be on building him up and just enjoying the ride home [from Japan].We have 10 days, its not such a rush like last week.

Jonathan Quick made 30 saves to shut out San Jose for the fourth time in his career in the post-season and the Kings staved off elimination for a second straight game by beating the Sharks 3-0 on Saturday night in Game 5 of their first-round series. "If anything, it seems a little more daunting because we came this far to get two, now we need to take two more," defenceman Drew Doughty said. "It puts more pressure on us because we can kind of smell it. We cant get ahead of ourselves. We have a lot of work ahead of us." Tyler Toffoli, Anze Kopitar and Jeff Carter scored for the Kings, who have rebounded after losing the first three games of the series. Quick allowed 16 goals in those losses, but once again is starting to look like the goalie who stymied the Sharks in a second-round series a year ago. Antti Niemi allowed three goals on 19 shots and got pulled for the second straight game for the Sharks. Perhaps more importantly, San Jose also lost star defenceman Marc-Edouard Vlasic to an upper-body injury after he was elbowed in the head by Jarret Stoll late in the first period. "We did a lot of good things for 3 1/2 games. Tonight was red rotten," coach Todd McLellan said. "Thats simply put. When we started the series, we talked about leaving games behind, closing the book on it. Theres no doubt well look at it. We have to improve. But its put in the bank and well move on." They may have to do it without Vlasic. He is questionable for Game 6 on Monday night in Los Angeles as the Kings are looking to become just the fourth NHL team to overcome a 3-0 deficit to win a playoff series. They finally broke through in San Jose after losing five playoff games here the past two seasons and 12 of 13 games here overall. But they will need to win here again to complete the comeback as Game 7 will be in San Jose on Wednesday, if necessary. The Kings came out looking like a desperate team and dominated from the start against the listless Sharks, who were unable to feed off the energy from a frenzied crowd hoping to see a fierce rival get eliminated. "We had a good start,"; Quick said. Isaiah Oliver Jersey. "We got a few shifts and we just tried to keep building on it. They came with a lot, too. They had a big pushback. Its not easy to win against this team. Theyre a great team for a reason." Los Angeles controlled the game on the ice, the shot clock and the scoreboard to take a 2-0 lead in the first period and mostly silence the crowd. The Kings opened the scoring when Tanner Pearson outraced Vlasic to a loose puck and fed a rushing Toffoli, who patiently skated around James Sheppard and beat Niemi with a shot from the slot to make it 1-0. The Kings made it 2-0 shortly after Joe Thornton was unable to bat a cross-ice pass from Brent Burns into an empty net. That fueled a 3-on-2 rush the other way and Kopitar knocked in a rebound of Dustin Browns shot. "Usually, we have really fast starts in this building and that wasnt the case tonight," Thornton said. "They started faster than us. Really, its a rarity around here. We just have to have better starts. Thats the bottom line." The Sharks responded to a 2-0 deficit in Game 2 that deficit with seven straight goals, but it was quickly clear that would not repeat when Carter banked a shot off Brad Stuarts skate for a power-play goal 22 seconds into the second period to end Niemis night. Alex Stalock came in and stopped 22 shots, but it was too late to save the Sharks in this game although it could make McLellan consider starting him in Game 6. "Well have to make some decisions throughout our lineup at every position because we werent obviously near good enough tonight," McLellan said. San Jose finally showed some life late in the second period, but by then Quick was on his game, robbing Brent Burns with a pad save on the power play late in the period. "I thought tonight was probably our best defensive game so far this series," Doughty said. "We dont want Quicky to have to stand on his head every night. We want to play well in front of him. We want to do things to make it a little easier for him. I thought we did that tonight but when he was called upon he was huge." NOTES: Niemi has been pulled four times in 38 playoff starts for San Jose, all against Los Angeles. ... Carter has points in nine straight playoff games dating to last season.
