Hamilton still 100% committed to Mercedes – Reuters

IMOLA, Italy, April 24 (Reuters) - Seven times Formula One champion Lewis Hamilton has dismissed as "a bunch of nonsense" speculation about his future and said he remains fully committed to Mercedes despite receding title hopes.

The 37-year-old Briton was 50 points adrift of Ferrari's Charles Leclerc after Saturday's Emilia Romagna sprint race, with that gulf set to widen further after only four of the season's 23 races.

Mercedes are struggling with a "porpoising" car that bounces on the straights as aerodynamic downforce is gained and lost, and Hamilton qualified only 14th for Sunday's main race at Imola.
