How early can Lewis Hamilton wrap up his sixth world title?

Victory at the Russian Grand Prix moved Lewis Hamilton even closer to a sixth title, one which would place him outright second on the all-time list behind Michael Schumacher.

The British driver is 73 points clear of Mercedes teammate Valtteri Bottas with 130 to play for in the final five races. Each grand prix win is worth 25 points, while there is an additional point available for any driver who finishes in the top ten and secures the fastest lap time of the race.

F1's points for the top ten finishes go as follows: 25-18-15-12-10-8-6-4-2-1.
