Hamilton revived his title hopes in Texas with an impeccable performance from pole to chequered flag. The victory at the Circuit of Americas halted a dismal run for the Briton who has suffered a series of mechanical failures during the season
Whatever happens at the Magdalena Mixhuca circuit, Rosberg will go into the next round in Brazil still leading the race for the F1 title.
There is a chance that the German could even seal the championship at the Mexico circuit if he wins the race with Hamilton finishing 10th or lower.
It's a happy circuit for him. He won there in 2015, starting from pole.
Hamilton told reporters after the keenly-fought qualifying session: 'I turned up to do the job and I'm going to try to do the same thing as I did last weekend here.
'So far this weekend has gone well and I'm looking forward to the race. The long runs seemed good and the car feels great, so just looking forward to getting out on track.'
Rosberg seemed happy enough with second, currently enjoying a 26-point cushion over Hamilton.
'It's not pole position, but it gives me great chance for tomorrow anyway, ' he said.
'It took a bit longer this weekend to find the way. Just generally with tire temperatures, it being on the cold side all the weekend. So it's a bit nervous out there and just to find the way with that took a bit longer. But got there in the end, so it was okay.'
