The third race of the season is in the books and once again Charles Leclerc was the man to beat. The Ferrari ace continued his stellar start to the campaign by winning the Australian Grand Prix and extending his lead at the top of the standings.
MELBOURNE : Williams driver Alex Albon was praised as the "tyre whisperer" by his team after lasting 56 laps on the same set of hard compound rubbers to finish 10th at the Australian Grand Prix on Sunday after starting at the back of the grid.
A flawless Charles Leclerc led from start to finish to steer his Ferrari to an action-packed win at the Australian Grand Prix on Sunday with world champion Max Verstappen failing to finish. The world championship leader from Monaco started from pole, held his position at the first corner and never looked back, scorching round the 58-lap Albert Park circuit to take the chequered flag by a massive 20.5 seconds. Red Bull's Sergio Perez was second with George Russell an encouraging third for the struggling Mercedes and his seven-time world champion teammate Lewis Hamilton fourth.
Charles Leclerc wins his second race of the season for Ferrari and has a comfortable lead in the standings. Max Verstappen suffered a second DNF in the last laps of the race.
Following consecutive Q3 appearances for the team in Bahrain and Jeddah, Magnussen failed to make it out of Q1 at Albert Park and only managed the 17th fastest time, while team-mate Mick Schumacher was the slowest in the Q2 session and will start 15th.
Alex Albon was dropped to the back of the grid for the Australian Grand Prix because there was not enough fuel in his Williams to provide a test sample after Saturday qualifying, officials said. The F1 website reported that Albon "stopped out on track after dropping out of Q1" and that Williams "were later unable to provide the required 1.0-litre fuel sample to the FIA." Albon finished with the 16th best time in the first qualifying run, too slow to progress to the last two sessions.
Charles Leclerc sealed pole position for the Australian Grand Prix on Saturday in Melbourne, with him set to start ahead of his Red Bull rival Max Verstappen.
