F1 Standings Mix-Up After Australian Grand Prix As Ferrari Turmoil Continues

A current view of the drivers' and constructors' standings ahead of the Azerbaijan GP.

Now that the third stage of the 2023 F1 season has come to a close in Australia, we are taking a look at the drivers' and constructors' standings ahead of the Azerbaijan Grand Prix later this month.

Red Bull has continued their dominance, winning every race so far this season. However, points remain close between Aston Martin and Mercedes in second and third, respectively, with Ferrari trailing behind. 

Charles Leclerc has had a terrible start to the season, having already had two DNFs. Carlos Sainz was putting in a good performance in Australia, but was handed a last-minute and controversial penalty putting him out of the points in twelfth.
