    The title is almost in Lewis Hamilton's grasp after taking victory in Russia, while Nico Rosberg retired.

    Hamilton needs nine more points than Sebastian Vettel and two more than Rosberg at the next race in the USA to clinch the title.

    Will he do it? Join us in two weeks to find out.

  2. Almost time for us to wrap things up here after a thrilling Russian Grand Prix. Missed it? Then race highlights will be on BBC Three at 19:00 BST.

    You can also read all about it in Andrew Benson's report here.

    The constructors' title celebrations can begin. Next up, the drivers' title. After today's dominant win, it is surely a matter of when, not if, Lewis Hamilton will wrap that one up.

    Mercedes win constructors' title

  9. MercedesAP

    History repeats then as Mercedes secure back-to-back constructors' titles, with this one coming at the same race they won the 2014 title.

    Chief F1 writer

    "Raikkonen penalised 30 seconds for Bottas crash - Mercedes are constructors' champions. 

    "Also a five-second penalty for Alonso for exceeding track limits, demoting him to 11th behind Verstappen."

  11. Mercedes win constructors' title

    That means Kimi Raikkonen is demoted to eighth so by our calculations...Mercedes have won the constructors' title.

  12. Raikkonen penalised

    And just as we say that, Kimi Raikkonen has 30 seconds added to his race time for causing a collision.

  13. The late collision between Kimi Raikkonen and Valtteri Bottas is under investigation. We haven't heard anything yet, but we are keeping our eye out.

  14. Massa

    A mixed day for Williams. Valtteri Bottas crashed late on, but Felipe Massa produced a great drive to finish fourth.

  15. McLaren finished inside the top 10, with Jenson Button ninth and Fernando Alonso 10th.

    Don't think we expected a double points finish. We did everything right, that's all we can do.

    BBC F1 co-commentator

    "I totally see Lewis Hamilton as the modern-era great. He is the class of the field right now. Yes, he's in the best car in the field right now but he has engineered that."

  17. Get involved - #bbcf1

    Mike Mawby: Everyone says what a good F1 ambassador Jenson Button is but you know what Lewis Hamilton is pretty damn good too.

    Joanna Poole: Middle teams seem to do extremely well with only one car racing: Perez third today, Grosjean third Belgium, Verstappen fourth Hungary.

  18. A hat trick for Hamilton?

    After wearing a Russian cossack following today's race, Lewis Hamilton has hats on his mind.

    He told the F1 Forum: "I'm aiming for the Mexico one - the sombrero. My aim is to get on the podium there and get one of them." 

  19. 'Title only goal for now'

    More from Lewis Hamilton, who is determined not to get ahead of himself despite having a 66-point title lead over new second-placed man Sebastian Vettel:

    "I will take my time and work just as hard as I have done," he said.

    Only Michael Schumacher and Alain Prost now have more F1 wins than him, but he says he is only focused on the title.

    "The goal is still the third world title. Until I achieve that then there is no other goal."
