To be fair to Hamilton, when his brakes went there was nothing he could do. No guarantee Rosberg had a brake problem to anywhere near the same extent. And Hamilton was dealing with the power issue better up to that point.
Mercedes strategy was strange though, they should have pitted laps before they did, as soon as cars lost power - they didn't have enough of a buffer.
What a brilliant race though
