Big win for Ferrari
Sebastian Vettel broke Ferrari’s Formula One drought with a victory over the Mercedes team of Lewis Hamilton and Valtteri Bottas at the season-opening Australian Grand Prix. Ferrari hadn’t won an F1 race since Vettel’s victory in Singapore in 2015. His triumph in Melbourne signaled a possible end to Mercedes’ domination of recent seasons — the manufacturer won 19 of the 21 GPs last season. Hamilton and Bottas were second and third, respectively, on Sunday.
