The result left the Brit with a nine point lead in the championship when he had been expecting to surrender his advantage to the German due to his 60-place grid penalty.
But Rosberg, whose father Keke won the world title in 1982, is refusing to throw in the towel and has promised to take the fight to Hamilton this weekend in Monza.
He said: "I'm really enjoying the battle out there right now. We've got several cars in the mix now which is exciting for us and also the fans.
