Hamilton -- the first British driver since David Coulthard in 1999/2000 to post successive wins in the race -- came home 10 seconds clear of Rosberg in yet another Mercedes 1-2, with Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel in third.

Hamilton -- whose victory was watched by 140,000 people the largest attendance since 1992 -- took his points tally to 194 and a lead of 17 over Rosberg, who had narrowed the gap to 10 prior to this weekend.

Recovering after losing his pole position advantage at the start, Hamilton stormed back into contention and regained the lead with a superbly-executed pit-stop to win by 10.956 seconds.

It was Hamilton's third win in his home race, his fifth win this year and the 38th win of his career.

Four-time champion Vettel took full advantage of the changing conditions with an equally well-timed stop to switch to intermediate tyres during the showers to finish third.

The race was punctuated by a Safety Car on the opening lap after a multiple collision that removed both Lotus cars and McLaren's Jenson Button.

It was a fruitful home race for Silverstone-based Force India as both their drivers earned points. Nico Hulkenberg finished 7th while Sergio Perez was 9th.
