Hamilton clinches world title with Abu Dhabi victory
Lewis Hamilton has claimed a second world championship with victory in the Abu Dhabi season finale as a mechanical issue ended Nico Rosberg’s title hopes.
The Brit made the best possible start to the race as he led title rival Rosberg in the early stages but the title battle took a decisive shift when Rosberg suffered a mechanical problem on lap 25.
Rosberg was unable to fight his team-mate as an ERS failure sapped his Mercedes of power, allowing Hamilton a relatively free run to an 11th victory of the season.
