McLaren’s Lewis Hamilton and Jenson Button rounded off a one-two in the second practice session for the Australian Grand Prix, after rain interrupted proceedings.
Light drizzle would appear just five minutes in, as the session became a battle between the McLaren drivers for the top time. Local hero Mark Webber was third, with Michael Schumacher in fourth.
However, it was a disappointing session for the Bahrain front runners with, Sebastian Vettel only managing 16th after a spin at turn 6 and the Ferrari drivers of Fernando Alonso and Felipe Massa 5th and 17th respectively.
