Lewis Hamilton wins the Chinese Grand Prix ahead of Sebastian Vettel

Mercedes driver Lewis Hamilton dominated the Chinese Grand Prix to take his first win of F1 2017 and move into a share of the championship lead after the season's first two races.

Lewis Hamilton's victory, in a race enlivened by a wet start and some terrific wheel-to-wheel battles, Hamilton immaculately led every lap from pole position despite a frantic start to the race on a drying track in Shanghai.
Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel was second, hardening impressions that 2017 will be a fight between the two multiple champions. Hamilton and Vettel.
Red Bull's Max Verstappen moved up from 16th on the grid to finish third.

Great race. Top drive by Lewis controlling pace, and picking when to pit at the right times.

Lewis Hamilton drove the perfect race he controlled the pace and got the hat trick of pole, fastest lap and the win. But Verstappen drove brilliantly from 17th especially the first lap and deserved driver of the day although annoyed at his whinging with about 5 laps to go that a car 2 seconds ahead wasn't getting out his way, the headline should be about Verstappen. Lad moved from 16th to finishing on the podium. Great race overall with some cracking overtaking from Vettel.
