Former world champion Lewis Hamilton has set his sights on a McLaren one-two at this weekend's Australian Grand Prix after dominating practice yesterday.

The afternoon session was disrupted by intermittent spells of rain but Hamilton took advantage of a dry spell to clock the fastest lap of the day with teammate Jenson Button just 0.275 seconds slower.

"We've made some improvements to our pace compared with Bahrain," said the 25-year-old. "Despite the wet weather, we went out early in the second session when it was still dry and got some good running under our belts in order to see how some of the changes we'd made between the sessions felt.

I would love to get a win and secure a one-two. That is always our goal but we don't know what we can achieve this weekend," Hamilton said.
