AUSTIN, Texas -- Toto Wolff says Mercedes faces a very stressful final three races of the season as it attempts to ensure 100 percent reliability for both its drivers.Nico Rosberg leads teammate Lewis Hamilton by 26 points, with 75 left to play for over the remaining three rounds. Hamiltons campaign has been plagued by reliability issues, including an engine failure while leading the Malaysian Grand Prix last month, but he took his first victory since July at the weekends U.S. Grand Prix.It is very stressful for the guys in the garage because there is a lot of responsibility and pressure on them, and everything that is being said, consciously or unconsciously, puts even more pressure, Wolff said. Thats not the right thing to do. Our job needs to be to take pressure away because responsibility and accountability stays there anyway. This is how these guys work.Hamilton admits he has been haunted by the failure in Malaysia and spent much of Sundays U.S. Grand Prix in fear of a repeat.Every single lap I was thinking something might happen, Hamilton said. When I get on that back straight I was petrified. It [the engine] has a beautiful ring to it, but it had a beautiful ring in Malaysia.ddddddddddddI was haunted by that, dreading that would happen so I am so grateful that it didnt. It wasnt until I got over the line that I was like thank you, I am so happy, rubbing the cockpit - thank you for getting me there.Wolff confirmed Mercedes had opted not to pursue an additional upgrade to its engine, meaning Hamilton and Rosberg both have the same spec engine for the rest of the season after the German took a new unit this weekend.We have decided not to bring the latest spec engine and upgrades to every single Mercedes customer, not just us. We are running that specification to what it can run, so that hasnt changed.Asked if there had been any engine worries in Austin, Wolff added: It is never plain sailing. It was as good as it can be with the engine. I understand that Malaysia came out of nowhere and Malaysia swings with all of us. That little trauma is going to remain for a while. ' ' '
