Photographers' picks: Australia

Photographers take hundreds of pictures throughout a grand prix weekend, ranging from track action to paddock atmosphere and the champagne moment on the podium.

With so much action at a race, some moments can go largely unseen. So F1i has decided to bring you the shots that the photographers themselves feel are among their best pieces of work from each race.

In partnership with XPB Images, we’ve asked each individual photographer - James Moy, Laurent Charniaux and Russell Batchelor - for one standout photo from each race weekend, with a little bit of background to the shot. Using the comments section below, you can pick your favourite; they’re a competitive bunch…

First up, the Australian Grand Prix from Melbourne.
