When is the Australian Grand Prix?
The Australian Grand Prix is the first of the new 2018 season.
Qualifying will he held on Saturday, March 24, from 7am UK time (5pm Australian time).
The race will start at 6.10am UK time (4.10pm Australian time).
F1's new owners Liberty Media have moved all races to start at 10 minutes past the hour to improve the experience of TV viewers.
A statement from themselves read: “Some broadcasters usually go on air precisely on the hour, hence missing the tension and emotion that characterise the minutes before the start of each Grand Prix.
“Thanks to this change, television viewers will be brought closer to the teams and the drivers and fully enjoy the spectacle offered just before the red lights go out.”
