Lewis Hamilton claims his second win of the season with a dominant lights-to-flag win. Beginning from pole, Hamilton gets away from Nico Rosberg and the title-chasing Sebastian Vettel.
Rosberg pits on lap 18, but crosses the white line on his exit, earning a drive-through penalty and putting himself out of contention. Vettel then leads the charge, closing the gap to Hamilton to under a second, but he is also handed a drive-through penalty for speeding in the pit lane, dropping him to fourth and effectively ending his challenge.
After building a lead of almost ten seconds over Timo Glock, Hamilton pits on lap 46 and rejoins in second place, behind Fernando Alonso who has yet to stop. When the Spaniard pits a few laps later, Hamilton sees out the remainder of the race without incident.
