F1 LIVE! Lewis Hamilton wins Eifel Grand Prix - race results, latest Formula One news and reaction

Eifel Grand Prix LIVE!

Lewis Hamilton has made history after matching Michael Schumacher's Formula One victory record by winning the Eifel Grand Prix.

The British driver started second at the Nurburgring but assumed control of the race on lap 13 when Mercedes team-mate Valtteri Bottas slid off the road.

Despite a late safety car, Hamilton kept his cool to cross the line 4.4 seconds clear of Red Bull's Max Verstappen and claim the 91st win of his remarkable career, 14 years and 10 days after Schumacher's final grand prix triumph in China.

Hamilton also moved 69 points clear of Bottas, who retired from the race with an engine failure, in his quest for a record-equalling seventh world championship. Daniel Ricciardo took the final podium position for Renault.
