Nico Rosberg leaps out of his Mercedes and playfully punches the camera. Three successive wins for the first time in his career. What an end to the season he has had.

Into the last lap and Nico Rosberg is heading to his third successive win. What's this, though, he reports some big vibration. Any last lap drama?

Romain Grosjean breezes past Daniil Kvyat and into ninth. A good sign off as he prepares to leave the Lotus team for Haas next year.

"Strat 10, strat 10," Lewis Hamilton is told. Nico Rosberg gets a similar message soon after.
Hamilton initially refused the request to change the engine mode, before he's forcibly told "that's an instruction".
Rosberg is cruising now to victory. He leads by eight seconds from Lewis Hamilton.

Lewis Hamilton's need a bit of that power boost Daniil Kvyat has. He is now 7.5s behind Nico Rosberg but they are both putting in similar laps now. Five laps to go, time is running out for the world champion.
Meanwhile, Max Verstappen is penalised for overtaking Jenson Button off the track and he'll have five seconds added to this time.
