Fastest laps - Australia 2014 - Rosberg's dominance sees him topping another table
Published by Christine
Whilst Nico Rosberg posted the fastest lap of the Australian Grand Prix, the pace of the Williams was evident with Valtteri Bottas in second place.
The two rookies were also fast around the Albert Park track, with Kvyat and Magnussen fourth and fifth fastest. As Massa and Kobayashi didn't make it past the first corner, neither managed to set a single lap time, let alone a fastest one.
