F1's return to Melbourne brought drama for Red Bull and an easy path to victory for Ferrari
pace continued in Australia, with Lewis Hamilton and George Russell finding themselves powerless once again to take the fight to Ferrari and Red Bull.
Hamilton made a great start from fifth on the grid to run third but had no way of fending off Sergio Perez in the Red Bull. He actually jumped the Mexican at the pitstops, only for ‘Checo’ to pass him comfortably and on the outside. That must have been dispiriting. What made it worse was the latest in a series of unlucky safety car breaks for the seven-time champion. Vettel dropping his Aston couldn’t have come at a worse time for Hamilton because it allowed team-mate George Russell to make his pitstop and jump the other Silver Arrows in the order. That made the difference for the final podium position, Russell taking it ahead of a disgruntled Hamilton.
