George Russell has taken pole position for the Australian Grand Prix as he outpaced his F1 rivals with ease.
Following his crash in FP3, Kimi Antonelli bounced back in strong fashion with a run to second place, three-tenths behind his team-mate.
Third place went the way of Isack Hadjar in an impressive debut for Red Bull.
It was a disastrous session for his team-mate Max Verstappen, who spun at the first corner on his first Q1 lap and collided with the barrier.
As a result, Verstappen was eliminated from the session and will start the grand prix from the back of the grid, joining Carlos Sainz and Lance Stroll who failed to emerge from the garage.
