Sainz was only just in that mix and finishes fifth. Verstappen and Albon were together in sixth and seventh. Norris, Stroll and Ricciardo complete the top 10.
"That's for all the kids out there that believe in the impossible. You can do it.", Hamilton says over the radio.
The realisation dawns on him now - he's a seven-time world champion with a stunning drive. Look at those tyres!
Vettel and Perez congratulate Hamilton, who's taking a moment to drink it all in.
Vettel: "It was quite intense, quite long, but good fun! A bit of a surprise to snatch the podium at the end, but very happy. I saw Charles was quite close to Sergio, heard Sergio was struggling on his tyres, and when I saw Charles lock up I thought there was an opportunity..."
Perez: "I've told my team on the radio, one more lap on those tyres I think they would have exploded. It made our race, though, I think the team did a fantastic job with strategy. Lewis was extremely strong."
Hamilton: "I'm definitely a bit lost for words. Naturally, I have to start by saying a huge thank you to the guys here and the guys at the factory. The journey we've been on is monumental. I want to also thank Team LH for sticking with me, and my family."
After that race, the cars all need a good clean. They're absolutely covered in muck and grime, like they've turned the diff lock on and gone for a blast around a muddy field.
We'll see you in two weeks' time to begin our final trio of races of the year. Thanks for joining us - we hope you enjoyed that!
