Hamilton won from pole to finish beating teammate Rosberg, while Lotus&rsquo; Romain Grosjean finished third, after Ferrari&rsquo;s Sebastian Vettel suffered a rear tyre failure with two laps to go.
Defending two-time world champion Hamilton, who leads this year&rsquo;s title race by 28 points after his sixth win this year, oozed with confidence, saying: &ldquo;I love my job. It&rsquo;s the greatest job in the world. I&rsquo;m halfway through my career and I&rsquo;m not hanging my helmet.&rdquo;
Tyre trouble for Seb However, Vettel faced possible post-race trouble with the stewards after he raged about Pirelli&rsquo;s &lsquo;unacceptable&rsquo; tyres and refused to be weighed at the end of the race. &ldquo;Things like that are not allowed to happen. What&rsquo;s upsetting is the result. We deserved to finish on the podium. It keeps coming around but nobody is mentioning it,&rdquo; said Vettel.
Force India on a high Sergio Perez gave Force India a season-best fifth place finish here yesterday.
