After starting from pole Hamilton dominated the race, eventually claiming his 23rd career win some 17 seconds ahead of his team-mate.
“I’m incredibly happy,” said Hamilton afterwards. “It’s my eighth year here and I finally got that win. I really just owe it all to the team. They did a fantastic job, the guys back at the factory have been pushing non-stop to get the car to where it is. To get a one-two… it’s quite special when you get a one-two. I’ve not had many in my career and so that makes it even more special. A great day.”
