The program for the 2023 Australian Grand Prix

Change of continent for Formula 1 who is heading to Australia for his third weekend of competition. THE Red Bull, imperial in Sakhir (Bahrain) and on the Corniche of Jeddah (Saudi Arabia), are once again the big favorites on the semi-urban route of Albert Park, in Melbourne (Australia).

In 2022, Max Verstappen (Red Bull) was forced into a second retirement in three races due to a mechanical problem. Charles Leclerc (Ferrari) had won his second victory of the season and was then leading the championship with 71 points and 46 points ahead of the Dutchman. The situation will probably be very different for this 36th edition of the Australian Grand Prix. Second strength in the field at the start of the season, Aston Martin will it succeed in undermining the domination of Austrian single-seaters?
