Mercedes driver Lewis Hamilton, who has won nine races in the 2019 Formula One season, is still placed at the top of the Drivers’ Championship standings.
Hamilton will win the title if the results go his way this weekend, but Bottas remains hopeful of winning his maiden trophy.
“I don’t really give up on anything as long as there’s a theoretical chance,” Bottas said on Formula One website.
“Everything’s possible although I’m realistic as well that I will need to be very lucky, that’s a fact, to win all the rest of the races but I don’t really think about that much at this point.”
Mercedes won the Constructors' Championship standings after Hamilton and Bottas secured a top-three finish at the 2019 Japanese Grand Prix.
Second-placed Ferrari and third-placed Red Bull are set to battle for the runner-up spot on the Constructors' Championship standings.
