Overall, I thought it was a good race to watch and a dominating race weekend for Nico Rosberg. Pole on Saturday. On Sunday, Rosberg started better than this team-mate Lewis Hamilton, dominate the race, lead most of the laps, fastest lap, to conclude with a race win at this seasons Mexican Grand Prix for his fourth race win of the season.
While, Rosberg's team-mate and current current F1 Champion Lewis Hamilton finished second place in the Mercedes to give the team its tenth one-two finish of the season, Hamilton was two seconds behind Rosberg at the end.
Meanwhile, Valtteri Bottas finished in third place in the Williams to complete the podium, Vettel was fourteen seconds behind Rosberg at the end of the seventy-one lap race.
