The 31-year-old Briton now faces a race against time to wrestle the championship momentum back from Nico Rosberg after he retired from Sunday's race.
Indeed with only five rounds remaining, starting at this week's race in Suzuka, Japan, Hamilton has been cast 23 points adrift of his Mercedes teammate and sole title rival.
"Last weekend was a disappointment, not just for me personally but for the whole team," said Hamilton, who was on course to win before his engine blew up with just 15 laps left.
"There is no use dwelling on these things, that is just negative energy. All we can do is focus on the next race taking things one step at a time and doing the best job we can," Hamilton said.
"It's not the lowest point I've had. There have been lower moments for sure. Regardless, I will find strength from within to fight back over these next five race weekends."
