Motor racing-Mercedes win second successive F1 constructors' title

SOCHI, Russia, Oct (HKSE: 3366-OL.HK - news) 11 (Reuters) - Mercedes (Xetra: 710000 - news) won their second successive Formula One constructors' title on Sunday after Ferrari's Kimi Raikkonen was penalised for causing a collision.

The Finn had finished fifth in the Russian Grand Prix won by Mercedes' Lewis Hamilton but picked up a 30-second penalty that dropped him to eighth place and meant Mercedes had mathematically clinched the title with four races to spare.
