Their team, Mercedes, had already clinched the World Constructors' Championship, holding a lead of two hundred and fifty-two points over Red Bull Racing, with third place Scuderia Ferrari another sixty-two points behind. Hamilton took pole position and won the race from Rosberg to take the championship to the final round in Abu Dhabi. Max Verstappen finished third, having dropped to 16th after a pit stop with 16 laps to go.

Race The track was very wet at the start so the race began behind the safety car until the start of Lap 8. Lewis Hamilton built up an early lead. Marcus Ericsson crashed on lap 13 on the pit straight bringing the safety car back out again. The race restarted again six laps later only for Kimi Räikkönen to crash on the pit straight immediately, spinning across the track before hitting the wall. The race was red flagged and there was a 35-minute delay before restarting again behind the safety car, however seven laps later it was again red flagged as the conditions were deemed still too dangerous. After another 25-minute delay, the race started again behind the safety car, which finally pulled in after another three laps. Late on in the race, Felipe Massa crashed near the pit entry, bringing the safety car out again. While walking back to the garage, Massa received applause from several teams and was visibly emotional, as it was expected to be his last Grand Prix in his home country.https://www.motorsportweek.com/2017/01/16/13574/ Felipe Massa stays with Williams for 2017 16 January 2017 Massa had initially announced his retirement but would race again in 2017.
