    Albert Lake Park Street Circuit in Melbourne, Australia.svg

    The 2012 Australian Grand Prix (formally, the 2012 Formula 1 Qantas Australian Grand Prix) was a Formula One motor race held on 18 March 2012 as the opening round of the 2012 Formula One season. It was the 77th race in the combined history of the Australian Grand Prix that dates back to the 100 Miles Road Race of 1928, and the 17th time the event has been held at the Melbourne Grand Prix Circuit at Albert Park.

    The race, contested over 58 laps, was won by McLaren driver Jenson Button who took his third victory at the Albert Park Circuit. Reigning Double World Champion Sebastian Vettel, driving for Red Bull Racing, finished in second place, while polesitter and McLaren teammate Lewis Hamilton completed the podium. Australian Mark Webber was fourth, his best result in his home grand prix.
