The latest set of F1 2023 results threw up several surprises in qualifying for the Australian Grand Prix at Albert Park. Q1 saw Sergio Perez carry on his woes from FP3 and slide off into the gravel after locking up at Turn 3, coming onto team radio and saying: “We need to sort that issue man, it was the same ****ing issue again.” This will mean the Red Bull driver is set to start the race right at the back come Sunday, while home debutant Oscar Piastri also narrowly missed out on a place in Q2. With rain thought to be on the way in the final stages of Q3, the drivers looked to get laps in as quickly as possible in the last part of qualifying – and after the first runs, only 0.086s separated the top four drivers, with Verstappen heading a crowded chasing pack despite nursing battery issues on his Red Bull, before reporting downshifts were a problem for him. But a storming final effort saw the two-time World Champion take half a second off his previous best, sealing a … [Read more...] about F1 2023 results: Qualifying timings from the Australian Grand Prix

The provisional F1 starting grid for the Australian Grand Prix has been set for Sunday, and several surprises came to the fore as the drivers struggled to get their tyres working throughout qualifying. Cool temperatures in Melbourne saw the drivers opt to take multiple laps on the same tyres throughout the session, but it was Max Verstappen who took pole position after battling battery and downshift issues through qualifying. Sergio Perez exited early after locking up at Turn 3 on his first qualifying lap, sliding into the gravel trap and bemoaning a continuation of the problem on his RB19 that plagued his FP3 session. It was a thoroughly entertaining Q3 in Melbourne in particular, with a tenth and a half covering the top five drivers after their first run before Verstappen threw the metaphorical cat amongst the pigeons by knocking half a second off his previous best effort. But rather than Fernando Alonso being his nearest challenger, he will be flanked on the grid by the two … [Read more...] about F1 starting grid: What is the grid order for the Australian Grand Prix?

After interrupted sessions on Friday, the drivers were out to make up for lost time in the final hour of practice before Australian Grand Prix qualifying. No rain around this time for the drivers, at first anyway, meaning it was a busy track from the very start in FP3 as the teams and drivers made up for Friday’s lost time. It was not only the weather which restricted running yesterday though, as a GPS issue in the opening session only added to the losses. The initial flurry of push laps ended with Sainz in top spot, the Ferrari driver going two-tenths clear of Alonso when he swapped the medium rubber for soft. Perez tried to join the action after an extended stay in the garage to start his session, but his opening lap was wrecked when he came across the Haas of Nico Hulkenberg dawdling on the racing line, who almost proceeded to collect the Red Bull driver as he cut across his path. And as the session ticked past halfway there was another obstruction for all in the form of … [Read more...] about F1 2023 results: FP3 timings from Australian Grand Prix practice

Fernando Alonso set the fastest time in second practice of the Australian Grand Prix before rain hit the Melbourne circuit. With rain forecast, there was an unusual start to FP2 as all the teams took to the track early on the slicks, hoping to set a representative time for Sunday’s race. They got limited running in though with some spots of drizzle soon descending onto Albert Park which saw the drivers head back into the grid. There was a bit of mix and match soon after with the Ferrari drivers remerging on the softs while George Russell opted for the intermediates but soon all the drivers had swapped to the green-rimmed tyre. That meant Alonso’s time would stay quickest with Charles Leclerc 0.445 seconds behind. FP1 leader Max Verstappen finished third ahead of Russell and Carlos Sainz. Logan Sargeant had issues that kept him in the garage while hometown favourite Oscar Piastri finished P14.
