What a terrific afternoon of racing. Thanks for your company this afternoon - hope you enjoyed the race as much as I did.
-
Hamilton lifts his trophy, his team celebrate; Rosberg gets a mixed reaction; and Massa leaps off his perch to wave his prize at the crowd.
-
Flags of all countries (and Ferrari) are waving on the track. It's beautiful to see.
-
And then the team's national anthem...
-
The drivers head out to great acclaim, and 'God Save The Queen' plays.
-
Rosberg and Hamilton both hug Massa. They are pointedly ignoring each other.
-
The track is invaded with Ferrari flags flying, although clearly they did not have a great weekend.
-
So Bottas took fourth, with the Red Bulls of Ricciardo and Vettel in fifth and sixth. Kevin Magnussen finished seventh, but he'll be bumped down once that penalty is applied.
-
"I'm so happy!" declares Massa, and indeed he does sound both chuffed and choked, although that might be the quality of the radio.
-
"That's a great result for the team, but certainly for my side of the garage a real shame," says Rosberg, giving with one hand and taking with the other.
-
"Nice work, Lewis, get in there pal - beautifully recovered," his team tell him over the radio.
-
Rosberg is close behind him, and Massa takes third - his first podium finish this year!
-
Hamilton is across the line and takes the Italian Grand Prix!
-
Replay shows an evident problem with Kvyat's car, and he did incredibly well at high speed to avoid the barriers.
53/53
Final lap! Rosberg is pushing and closing the gap.
-
Kvyat was pushing hugely and he missed that Turn One!
-
Race stewards are going to investigate that Gutierrez/Grosjean incident after the race.
52/53
Magnussen is struggling hugely now as his tyres wear down and he continues to push, remembering that five-second penalty he'll have applied at the end.
51/53
Perez is attacking Magnussen now.
-
Gutierrez seems to have picked up a puncture thanks to some odd weaving around and colliding with Grosjean.
