The Formula One season heads to Valencia this week with Hamilton currently leading the Championship standings by two points over the second-placed Fernando Alonso of Ferrari.
It has been an unpredictable season so far, with seven different winners from seven races which has made Hamilton firmly focused on securing the first back-to-back win of the campaign come race day on Sunday.
"My win in Montreal was obviously an extremely satisfying moment for me - but actually, it does very little to alter things in the world championship," Hamilton said in The Sun.
"I'm only two points ahead of Fernando - which is nothing, particularly when there are a handful of really strong drivers all separated by a couple of points.
"Secondly, the intensity of this year's championship means there's so little breathing space.
"We may have won in Canada, but there's an enormous amount of pressure to keep racking up good results at every grand prix.
"I think that consistency, rather than individual strong results, will be the key to winning this world championship, so we need to back it up in Valencia with another strong result.
"I'll be heading to Valencia feeling super-motivated to get another result and maintain my momentum."
The 27-year-old Hamilton is the 2008 Formula One World Champion.
