Lewis Hamilton won the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix but Nico Rosberg finished second to take his first ever world drivers' championship.

Hamilton was given numerous instructions from Mercedes to speed up but said he was willing to risk losing the race in his attempts to win the title. Rosberg came under pressure from Vettel in the closing laps, with Hamilton's pace dropping off dramatically but he held on to second to win the championship by five points. More to follow.
