Australia race analysis - the Brawn supremacy
Prix win and capping a stunning debut race weekend for the British-based team. Team-mate Rubens Barrichello brought his BGP
001 car home in second position to achieve the first one-two finish for a new team since Mercedes-Benz in 1954.
The two Brawn-Mercedes cars started from the front row of the grid after dominating Saturday’s qualifying session. Jenson had a
good start, maintaining his advantage into the first corner and establishing a strong lead over the field. From there he controlled the
race, responding well to the first safety car period and recovering from a slow second stop which reduced his lead over Vettel to 1.5
seconds, before taking the chequered flag for a well-deserved victory at the end of the 58-lap race
Rubens had a somewhat more dramatic race with a difficult start off the line dropping him a few places and he subsequently
sustained damage to his front wing and nose in a first corner collision. He battled with the damage for the first stint, survived a
further collision with Raikkonen, and passed Rosberg on track to be up to fourth by lap 53.
Rubens took his podium finish when an incident between Vettel and Kubica put both cars out of the race with three laps to go
promoting Rubens to second and bringing out the safety car which brought the field home.
