Defending world Formula One champion Sebastian Vettel will start from pole position for the Australian Grand Prix, with Australian teammate Mark Webber second.
The two Red Bull drivers set the pace throughout qualifying on Sunday morning, after the remaining two sessions of qualifying were postponed from Saturday after heavy rain
and poor visibility.
Vettel and Webber set their flying laps late in a frenetic last two minutes of the final 10-minute session as drivers swapped to supersoft tyres, providing more grip as the track dried out from rain earlier in the day.
The German's 1min 27.407sec lap outflanked Webber by more than four-tenths of a second.
Briton Lewis Hamilton made a great start with his new team Mercedes, qualifying third.
