Hamilton held back by overheating issues in Melbourne

Lewis Hamilton revealed that he hadn't been able to go fully on the attack in the Australian Grand Prix because his Mercedes was suffering from overheating issues. Hamilton qualified for the race in fifth place and immediately gained two spots at the start with passes on Lando Norris and Sergio Perez. The Red Bull eventually got back ahead, and Hamilton lost out again during the round of pit stops when his team mate George Russell got a 'free' stop during a safety car. It meant Hamilton spent the latter stages of the race running in fourth place, just missing out on a spot on the podium to Russell at the chequered flag.
