Hamilton shot into 19 point lead at the start from second on
the grid as Rosberg slipped to fourth, where he finished after a difficult
afternoon.
Rosberg was penalised for forcing Red Bull's Max Verstappen
off the track.
The German finished behind Red Bull's Daniel Ricciardo and
Verstappen after being unable to make up the lost time.
It was the icing on the cake for a perfect afternoon for
Hamilton, who has put a stranglehold on the championship after a remarkable
recovery from a difficult start to the season.
In seven races, Hamilton has turned his season around, moving
from a 43-point deficit to Rosberg after five races to his current advantage of
just six points short of an entire win. This was his fourth consecutive
victory.
"What a race," said Hamilton.
"Yesterday
second place but got a great start, the balance was amazing and it was just
about keeping it cool and looking after the engine."
