Fascinating race - disastrous for Red Bull, excellent for everyone on the podium. You can chat with me after the race with me on Twitter @Mark_Eurosport.

Rosberg, di Resta, Kobayashi and Senna round out the top 10.
-
Massa fourth, Raikkonen does just enough to hold off Schumacher.
-
A superb second for Perez, Alonso into third.

HAMILTON WINS THE ITALIAN GP!
53/53
Raikkonen at threat from Schumacher on the final lap - can the German pinch another place?
53/53
Meanwhile Hamilton at the front is sauntering through to a big victory. He's driven superbly well in a good car. Perez, though, will just wish he had another five laps...
52/53
Looks like flat spots on the tyres were his undoing as well. Miserable day for Red Bull.

NO! Webber is stuck in seventh gear, nowhere near the limit - he's lost the points places, and his race is to all intents and purposes over.
51/53
MORE DRAMA FOR RED BULL! WEBBER LOSES THE CAR AT ASCARI! Lack of grip, perhaps, and a vicious swerve takes him into the grass. Webber can at least continue...
51/53
Pictures on television of Red Bull principal Christian Horner with his head in his hands at that Vettel exit - it was very costly.
50/53
Hamilton's lead has been trimmed to 9.4seconds - but it looks like too much for Perez to close before the chequered flag.
49/53
Schumacher charging - up to sixth now - Raikkonen may not be able to hold on. Rosberg looking to eke out an extra place or two as well.
49/53
'STOP THE CAR - WE NEED TO SAVE THE ENGINE!' - panicked warning to Vettel as his race ended. It's a sorry end to a tough weekend.

VETTEL STOPS! Well, we had been warned - could be the alternator, but it's a big blow for the German's title aspirations. And that means Hamilton would move up to second in the standings.
48/53
Raikkonen is going to stay out in fifth to keep Vettel at bay.
47/53
Hamilton told to put his foot down. The gap around 12 seconds and if Hamilton cannot pick up his speed he would find himself in a bit of trouble.

PEREZ PASSES ALONSO! Easy! Alonso wisely doesn't fight too hard, and next up the road is Hamilton.
46/63
The Mercedes duo, also on fresher rubber, making good progress now - Schu up to 9th, Rosberg up to 11th.
