And although the race did not produce the desired results for #lewishamilton and the team on Sunday, the reigning World Champion still managed to set some new records Down Under. Lewis not only claimed his 73rd Formula 1 pole position on Saturday with that amazing qualifying lap but also set a new track record. It was his fifth pole in succession on this track, which means he has consistently started from the very front in the Australian Grand Prix since 2014. His total of seven pole positions on the #Melbourne Grand Prix circuit is more than for any other Page 2 contestant in the history of this race. Another interesting fact: Lewis has more poles to his credit in #Melbourne than on any other track. Also, his eighth podium finish in #Australia matches his tally from Shanghai, the only other race in which has had as many Top Three finishes.
