The fault of Mercedes units do seem to be incredibly abnormally distributed towards Hamilton. The chances of him having the only 4 engines go out of the 43 used so far is around 1 in 2,000 by my calculations.
My only possible explanation is that it's a combination of Mercedes pushing the hardware more than others and Hamilton driving it harder than Rosberg. Though it's anybody's guess.
I do find the conspiracy theories especially hilarious this time around though. "F1 team deliberately ensures they don't win the championship at the circuit of their title sponsor after inviting a bunch of VIPs from said title sponsor".

Lewis doing his best to get in the conspiracy theory thread...

Higher power = Niki Lauda? ;)
Seriously though, bloody unlucky season for him. But if (as has been postulated elsewhere) his style can put more stress on the hardware, I can see his point that the team do have to answer why they haven't adapted to the situation.
