Mercedes driver Valtteri Bottas celebrates after winning the Russian GP at the Sochi Autodrom circuit today.

The Finn swooped to take second place at the start and inherited the lead when the runaway series leader and six-time champion took an extended pit-stop to serve two five-second penalties for irregular pre-race practice starts. It was the sixth time this year the three had appeared together on the podium, but in a very different order to that expected as Bottas secured his second win in Russia and second this season.

Bottas took a swipe at those he considered his critics in an expletive-laden message on the team radio during his slowdown lap.
