Lewis Hamilton delighted his home crowd by completing a hat-trick of consecutive victories at the British Grand Prix.
Second was the Red Bull of Max Verstappen, but Rosberg – suffering late gear-box problems – received a ten second penalty over radio communication and dropped to third having finished in second place initially.
Hamilton, who started from pole in a race that began slowly behind the safety car because of heavy rain, has gradually eaten away at rival Rosberg’s lead in the drivers’ standings.
