Baku (AFP) – Nico Rosberg led from pole to claim his fifth win of the season in the inaugural European Grand Prix on the street circuit in Baku on Sunday.

The Mercedes driver was followed across the line by the Ferrari of Sebastian Vettel with Force India’s Sergio Perez in third.

Rosberg’s team-mate Lewis Hamilton, who started from 10th on the grid after Saturday’s horror show in qualifying, took fifth.

Rosberg extended his lead in the world championship over Hamilton to 24 points.
