Trulli penalty pushes Hamilton into 3rd at Australian GP
The world champion secured a surprise third behind Brawn GP pair Jenson Button and Rubens Barrichello in the season-opening Australian Grand Prix.
After finishing second in the constructors' championship last year, the Mercedes-powered outfit are off the pace so far this season.
A determined drive from Hamilton, combined with a collision between Sebastian Vettel and Robert Kubica and a time penalty for Jarno Trulli secured third place for the British driver from 18th on the grid.
