Formula 1: Australian Grand Prix – Race Line-Up
At the end of a sensational first qualifying session for Formula One racing’s new 1.6-litre turbo era, Mercedes’ Lewis Hamilton ruined a fairy tale for Red Bull, Daniel Ricciardo and Australia by snatching pole at a wet Albert Park on Saturday afternoon. The Briton’s gamble to stay on wet tyres enabled him to deny the intermediate-shod Ricciardo what would have been a sensational maiden pole position, and in doing so equal compatriot Nigel Mansell’s tally of 32 P1 starts.
