-

Sebastian Vettel jumped onto the podium at the Australian Grand Prix and held up his right index finger, celebratin­g the end of Ferrari’s Formula One drought and a break in the Mercedes dominance. Ferrari hadn’t won an F1 GP since Vettel’s victory in Singapore in 2015. “For now, we’re just over the moon,” the four-time world champion said after holding off Mercedes’ Lewis Hamilton and Valtteri Bottas. “It’s been a great day for us.” Meanwhile, 18-year-old Canadian rookie Lance Stroll lasted only 40 laps in his debut for Williams.
