Hamilton laughs at sore losers Red Bull

Reigning F1 world champion Lewis Hamilton has joined his Mercedes bosses in hitting back at Red Bull's wailing and whinging.

Struggling Red Bull has called on F1 authorities to take action against Mercedes' huge dominance, arguing the engine regulations are "killing" the sport.

Briton Hamilton, the reigning world champion and Melbourne winner, laughed when told about Red Bull's sore loser stance.

"I said to Sebastian (Vettel) after the race 'You did this for four years. You were 30 seconds ahead for four years'. So I know what it feels like," he said.

Hamilton said the fact the best cars dominate formula one is nothing new.

"No one had a Marussia and won the world championship, did they?" he insisted. "Fangio still had a great car. It's the name of the game."
