Lewis Hamilton has taken a step closer to another Driver’s Championship with victory at the Russian F1 Grand Prix. Hamilton’s Mercedes team mate Nico Rosberg, who started on pole, was forced to retire with throttle issues, before Romain Grosjean suffered a heavy crash on lap 12. Collisions for Nico Hulkenburg and Marcus Ericsson ended their race on lap one, while Valtteri Bottas was on course to finish third but crashed on the final lap. Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel finished second and Force India's Sergio Perez 3rd. This is Hamilton's 42nd win and he's now 66 points ahead of Vettel in the Driver's Championship with four races remaining.
