LEWIS HAMILTON IS THE 2014 FORMULA 1 WORLD CHAMPION.
Lewis Hamilton starts the final lap with a 3.3 second lead over Felipe Massa. It looks certain now that Hamilton will win this race - and more importantly the 2014 Formula 1 World Championship.
Nice touch from Nico Rosberg there. The German is down in 13th, his title chance over, but he still wants to get to the line like a pro.

"Hamilton will lap Rosberg at this rate. He knows he is safe but wants to go out in style."
Mercedes:, external He's giving it all he's got, but Nico Rosberg is powerless (literally) to resist overtakes. Not like this - not like this...
What a finish this is from Felipe Massa, now just 3.8 seconds. I think Lewis Hamilton has done enough, but Massa is not giving this up without a fight. He wants that first win since 2008. Hamilton, though, is taking it very steady.
Lewis Hamilton's race engineer: "Lewis, Nico is not a threat now."
It's going to be a grandstand finish as Felipe Massa closes to within 4.6 seconds of Lewis Hamilton in the battle for the lead. Meanwhile, Nico Rosberg has slowed dramatically and is down to 13th.
Sit up straight, hands in your laps. It's time to pay attention for the final five.
Can Lewis Hamilton keep it going to the flag? Will Felipe Massa earn what would be a very popular win?

Caterham:, external Kamui explains he felt "a lot of vibrations" during last couple of laps and car was becoming un drivable.
Felipe Massa now 5.8 seconds behind race leader Lewis Hamilton. "It's impressive stuff from the Williams team," says BBC co-commentator David Coulthard.
Hamilton's girlfriend Nicole Scherzinger can feel the tension. Just five laps to go.
Nico Rosberg is currently seventh, with Lewis Hamilton leading. So as it stands, Hamilton will win the title. But what if Felipe Massa catches Hamilton and the two bang wheels, forcing Hamilton out? That would mean Rosberg would only need fifth to win the title. Just saying.
Felipe Massa continues to hunt Lewis Hamilton down, the gap now just 6.8 seconds with seven laps remaining.
Williams:, external Felipe told there is no threat from behind so he is just racing to the finish!
