Get at least a second consecutive pole position in the performance of Sebastian Vettel Red Bull, as well as second place in qualifying his team-mate Mark Webber. And the mere Fernando Alonso says that to beat the bulls in qualifying settings while it is not realistic, and they say, need to calm down and try to climb as high as possible, because at the start of each season Scoring is very valuable. In qualifying Webber and Vettel for a time even forgot about the team game and fought each other hard. Webber was especially important to win in front of compatriots, and Vettel eager to repay partner for cuff that he received from Mark at last year's German Grand Prix in front of their own fans. Therefore, on up to the rematch happier man than Vettel, an Australian stage was not.

And already on the first lap accident involving Fernando Alonso, Jenson Button and Michael Schumacher, because of which the first two pretty lost positions, and seven-time champion went into the pits for a front wing. In addition to all serious clash took place between Japanese Kamui Kobayashi and German Nico Hulkenberg. From the car the Japanese remained only half, and to the highway could remove the wreckage, had to release the pace car. But once again demonstrated a brilliant start Petrov. If in the last race he won in his address laudatory words, stroke having played six seats at the start, then this time he rescued immediately eight - with a 18th place he moved to the 10 th! Also brilliantly distinguished himself, Robert Kubica, beating on the first lap five rivals. Over time, rain subsided.

Sensation spectacle Zone - 7-th place of Vitantonio Liuzzi Force India. Numerous statements by the team on its fine form, yet do not diverge from reality. As for Petrov, his performance once again mixed. Unfortunately, in this case it looks like most of our athletes fall into the elite championships.
