Lewis Hamilton is closing in on a third Formula One world title after romping to victory at the Italian Grand Prix.

The 30-year-old held off the challenge from Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel on the run down to turn one and from there he never looked back.

Vettel followed Hamilton home while Nico Rosberg retired after his engine blew up with just two laps remaining.

Former Ferrari driver Felipe Massa crossed the line in third for Williams.
