The third round of Formula One 2022 season at the Australian Grand Prix ended on Sunday with Charles Leclerc finishing a dominant weekend for Ferrari, earning his second win of the season. In the process, Leclerc extended his lead in the drivers’ championship table after holding off Red Bull's Max Verstappen during the opening laps of the race, as well as during the mid-race safety cars.

Starting the race on pole position, Leclerc finished the race 20.524 seconds clear of second-place finisher Sergio Perez, along with the fastest lap of the race.

While Leclerc and Perez earned the podiums for Ferrari and Red Bull, reigning world champion Max Verstappen and Leclerc’s teammate Carlos Sainz suffered DNFs and bowed out of the race. At the same time, George Russell earned his first podium with Mercedes, while eight-time world champion Lewis Hamilton finished fourth. The McLaren pair of Lando Norris and Daniel Ricciardo finished fifth and sixth respectively.
