VIDEO: Hectic crash at Australian Grand Prix
A nasty looking crash took centre stage as the 2016 Formula One season got underway at the Australian Grand Prix on Sunday.
Fernando Alonso and Esteban Gutierrez were the drivers involved in the accident - which fortunately ended with no serious injury to either driver.
Alonso tried to overtake Gutierrez but their cars made contact, which saw Alonso crash into the side wall and wreck his car.
The safety car came out for a few laps as both drivers were taken off the track and the debris was cleared.
Check out the footage of the crash:
2015 F1 winner Lewis Hamilton started on pole, but he finished second behind Mercedes teammate Nico Rosberg who won the race. Ferrari's Sebastien Vettel came in third.
