With just five units allowed during the season, to have lost one after the opening race could have been fatal to Hamilton's chances of overall success.


Victorious in Melbourne, team-mate Nico Rosberg noted via ESPN that Mercedes were now the team to beat:

The chances are, yes, that we will be right at the front because it seems that we have a bit of an advantage over the other people.

Of course Melbourne is not a benchmark as a race, so we need to be a bit cautious with that but I think we're looking good, so it will be possible to do a great result again here.


Should Hamilton take the front row on the starting grid,...
