Formula One world champion Lewis Hamilton won the Belgian Grand Prix from pole position on Sunday to stretch his lead over Mercedes team mate Nico Rosberg to 28 points with eight races remaining.
Rosberg finished 2.0 seconds behind the Briton, in a dry race despite teams anxiously studying weather maps for approaching rain in the final stages, to complete Mercedes' seventh one-two in 11 races.
"Today was a dream and the car was fantastic all weekend," declared Hamilton, who controlled the race from the opening lap -- after an aborted first start -- and never looked threatened by his German rival.
"I was never in a position where I felt nervous, I had great pace in the car. There was no real need to push more than I had to," he added.
