Nico Rosberg wins again in wild Chinese Grand Prix

Nico Rosberg continued his perfect start to the 2016 Formula 1 season with his second Chinese Grand Prix victory to open up a 36-point cushion over Mercedes team-mate Lewis Hamilton

11:00

11:00 Rosberg's celebrations will be family-based tonight: "We'll have a party now in the garage - everyone in the team deserves it so much - but then it's straight home to my family. I can't wait to see them."

10:59 "These kind of moves can bring you a podium," says Kvyat, although he does appear apologetic at forcing Vettel into Raikkonen.

10:58 Vettel sums up the first corner incident:

"Obviously its difficult to judge how it looked from his point of view. He was coming with a lot of speed into that gap and I was surprised. In the end we could both continue but it wasn't the best result for the team."

10:57 Rosberg talks us through his start from the podium: "The start was not quite good enough. Daniel had a really good one. I had a really quick car today so attacked him straight away and managed to pull away after that."

10:54 Tony Ross picks up the constructor's trophy for Mercedes AMG, looking as happy as his driver on the top spot of the podium.

10:53 The German national anthem rings out in Shanghai for Rosberg as three different constructors make it onto the top three steps of the podium.

10:52

10:51 Rosberg and Vettel exchange pleasantries in the holding room before the podium in German.

Then Kvyat comes in and Vettel tells Kvyat: "You came in like a torpedo." Kvyat replies "that's racing" as the two exchange heated words. That could have done with referee.

10:49 Nico Hulkenberg stole the fastest lap of the race with a 1m39.824s. Impressive stuff, although he finished outside of the points in 15th.

We had no retirements in this race. That hasn't happened many times.

10:48

10:47 Rosberg loosens his helmet and calmly places it on the monocoque. It's a fairly low-key celebration but does involve him standing on the car waving to fans.

To reiterate, the German has won the first three races of the season and the last six grand prix. A great run.

10:47 "Massive apologies, I didn't do it on purpose. Kyvat came like a torpedo." A subdued Vettel responds to Ferrari's congratulations.

10:46 Rosberg reports: "That was the best balanced car we've had in a race. Incredible."

Vettel apologises to the team and to Raikkonen for hitting him on the first lap.

09:31

09:31 Vettel drafts past Alonso on the back straight but Alonso makes a bold fight of it at the hairpin.

09:30 Further back the Renaults are dicing as Magnussen has just passed Palmer for 17th overall.

09:30 "Good stuff Sebastian, next is Alonso then push hard," is Ferrari's instruction.

09:30 Early leader and puncture victim Ricciardo is back into the top 10 as he passes Wehrlein.

09:30

09:30 Vettel is lining up Alonso for a pass for fourth.

09:29 Wehrlein is now down to 10th as both Button and Sainz pass him.

09:29 Vettel flies past Perez on the back straight and takes fifth. His next target - just ahead - is Alonso.

09:29 Raikkonen is stuck behind Hulkenberg in 14th as his charge is flailing. Meanwhile Hamilton - who started behind him after the safety car - has taken Gutierrez and is jousting with Ricciardo for 11th.

09:29 Lead order: 1 Rosberg; 2 Kvyat; 3 Massa; 4 Alonso; 5 Perez; 6 Vettel; 7 Bottas; 8 Wehrlein; 9 Button; 10 Sainz.

09:28 Vettel is now on Perez's tail for fifth - but this charge probably won't go on much longer before he needs fresh tyres.

09:27 Gutierrez's slump continues as Sainz pushes him outside the top 10.

09:27 Button has now taken ninth from Gutierrez.

09:27

09:27 Hamilton report: He takes 13th from Hulkenberg's Force India and next up is Ricciardo...who started second on the grid. Brilliant race so far.

09:27 Kvyat grabs second from Massa into the hairpin. He's 6.8s behind Rosberg but has a pitstop in hand.

09:27 A replay shows Vettel did make contact with Bottas in their dice. Another chip off the Ferrari's front wing there.

09:26

09:26 Vettel is through on Wehrlein and into sixth place.

09:26 Kvyat is now very close to Massa for second place.

09:26

09:26 Perez shoots past Wehrlein into fifth at Turn 1, as Vettel pulls the same move on Gutierrez for seventh.

09:26 Top move from Ricciardo as he takes Hulkenberg and incredibly takes Palmer too. Hamilton is sniffing around too as he's 14th. Hulkenberg is next on the road for the Brit.

09:26 Beautiful pass from Vettel - right around the outside of Bottas at the hairpin to take eighth.
