Hamilton took a step closer to the world title, stretching his lead to seven points with a dominant victory at the Chinese Grand Prix.

But Felipe Massa stayed in the title hunt, crossing the line behind Hamilton's McLaren after his Ferrari team-mate Raikkonen ceded second place to him in the closing laps.

Kubica recovered from a lowly 11th place on the grid in Shanghai to finish sixth for BMW Sauber but it was not good enough to stay in contention.
