Hamilton fastest in practice at Australian F1 Grand Prix

Mercedes AMG Petronas F1 Team's British driver Lewis Hamilton.

Current World Champion Lewis Hamilton has been fastest in both practice sessions at the Australian F1 Grand Prix. He crossed the finish line more than four tenths of a second ahead of Force India driver Nico Hulkenberg. Hamilton’s team-mate Nico Rosberg crashed his Mercedes in second practice. The damp conditions meant his mistake was not as costly as it could have been.
