Enforced comebacks from the back of the field is what has gained me the respect of Hamilton.

I doubt Rosberg could have accomplished that, but Hamilton has already shown he can do just that multiple times,.

Shame they couldn't get Nico's car fixed for his pit lane start - an enforced comeback drive from the back of the field often defines a drivers ability, though it woould have been tough at that track. Vergne pulled some great passes at the end of the race...considering how close he was to Ricciardo at TR I can't believe he hasn't a race seat for next year yet.
I sort of waited for Hamilton to stick it in the wall when he was pushing so hard after the safety car so it was a relief to see he get past Vettel and then ease up for the last laps.
