Lewis Hamilton is only 18 points behind Sebastien Vettel in the Drivers' Championship after he overcame the German to win the Chinese Grand Prix with a late charge.

Hamilton drew on every ounce of his ability and intelligence to secure a dramatic victory which leaves him trading at [3.9] to win a second Championship of his career. He described the win as, "one of the best races I've experienced," and spoke of how he had tried to pick up pace while nursing his tires.

Indeed, the British driver who made three stops, one more than Vettel, used his fresh tyres to work his way up the field and over take the leader with four laps remaining.

Behind Vettel, Jenson Button was denied a podium place by Mark Webber who put in an astonishing drive to finish in third, having start the race in 18th.

Vettel, who has started the 2011 season with two victories and a second place finish, remains Championship favourite at [1.83] but Hamlton's victory certainly shakes things up at the top of the table. Punters will eagerly await the next Grand Prix, which takes place in Turkey on May 8.
