Red Bull driver Max Verstappen won pole position ahead of the Australian Grand Prix, the third race of this year's Formula 1 championship.

It is the defending champion's second pole position this season, 22nd in his career.

On the track "Albert Park" in the morning from seven o'clock, George Russell in Mercedes will start from the front row. The Briton was 236 thousandths behind Verstappen, and a little more than a tenth ahead of teammate Lewis Hamilton.

In addition to Verstappen's routine way to pole position, as well as the unexpected company that followed him, the third qualification was also marked by the exit of the second driver of Red Bull, Sergio Peres, who will start from the back.

From the second row, alongside Hamilton, will be the Spanish veteran Fernando Alonso in Aston Martin, who won the 100th podium in his career in the previous, second race of the championship.
