An exciting battle for the lead was developing between Kimi Raikkonen and Fernando Alonso in the closing stages of the Australian Grand Prix.

The Ferrari driver made his final pit stop five laps later than the Lotus, and gained rapidly on the leader after returning to the track.

But shortly after passing Adrian Sutil, Alonso’s progress slowed and then reversed. In the final five laps the gap between him and Raikkonen doubled. Further back Sebastian Vettel’s lap times had also dropped off.

Last year’s Lotus was one of the better cars for tyre management and it seems the E21 is as well.

It is in Raikkonen’s hands at least. Team mate Romain Grosjean made three visits to the pits and was clearly struggling for pace at the end.

For the second race in a row a Force India led at one point. Adrian Sutil spent 11 laps in the lead on his return to F1.

But having left his super-soft tyre stint until the end of the race Sutil struggled for grip in the closing stages. He was passed by Lewis Hamilton and Mark Webber in one lap. Team mate Paul di Resta then caught him quickly but was ordered not to overtake his team mate.
