Nico Rosberg took pole and he consolidated his advantage over Lewis Hamilton and he never allowed the race to slip away. It was one-way traffic after the start.

Rosberg and Hamilton tried to gain the advantage but Rosberg proved to be too strong for the world champion. Later, Hamilton remarked that because he was unable to pass, he asked the team to give him a chance to change strategy but it was refused. Hamilton was left unhappy over the "boring" way the race panned out.

It was the 30-year-old German's second consecutive triumph following his Mexico win after his unforced error at the United States Grand Prix gifted Hamilton victory and his third title in Texas last month.

Starting from his fifth consecutive pole position, Rosberg made a flawless start and controlled the race from the front, relinquishing the lead only when he pitted three times, while Hamilton chased and challenged in vain.
