Based on Friday’s running the stage appeared to be set for a proper on-track battle in Melbourne between Red Bull Ferrari. The chances of such an epic fight taking place went down after Max Verstappen’s comfortable pole position in qualifying.

But there’s still a race day to look forward to. Here is our selection of pictures from Saturday’s action at the Australian GP at Albert Park in Melbourne.
