West Aussie F1 driver Daniel Ricciardo has come from starting on the third row of the grid to win the Chinese Grand Prix.

It's Ricciardo's sixth Grand Prix win and the first since his triumph at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix in June last year. 

The race was full of drama as the winning end for Sebastian Vettel came to a close after colliding with Max Verstappen. 

Ricciardo said he never seems to win boring races. 

"That was unexpected. It was hectic. I heard the safety car call at turn 14 and they said we are going to stop. It happened very quickly, but it was a decisive, winning move." Ricciardo said.
