Ferrari's promising start to the Formula One season continued on Friday as they dominated free practice at the Australian Grand Prix. However, there was more bad news for struggling Mercedes at a revamped Albert Park.
MELBOURNE: Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc said Friday there was still work to do despite going quickest in second practice at the Australian Grand Prix ahead of Red Bull’s Max Verstappen, with Lewis Hamilton only managing 13th.

But Leclerc fired an ominous warning in the second session with a leading time of 1min 18.978 secs, with reigning world champion Verstappen 0.245secs behind after a late surge.
