Story of this race: Hamilton qualified on pole, but half-messed up his start again. Rosberg led into the first turn and took Hamilton slow and wide into turn 1, giving Bottas enough of a look to try a suicide move down this inside. He ended-up T-boning Hamilton and getting a drive-through penalty. Hamilton had a messed up car for the rest of the race (they said 1-1.5 secs of degradation per lap). He fought through to 3rd. Post-race, Mercedes had to open up the gearbox for inspection, causing a further problem for China (5 position penalty). Though this is now moot, as the car failed in qualifying (who knows - maybe all still related?).

Rosberg drove away from everyone after that first corner ... no drama, 25 points.
