High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The 1988 Australian Grand Prix was a Formula One race held at the Adelaide Street Circuit, Adelaide, on November 13, 1988. It was the last race of the 1988 Formula One season, as well as the last race for turbo engines. McLaren notched up the last front row of the season, with Ayrton Senna taking his 13th pole of the season after a great qualifying duel. Alain Prost led off the start from Senna, Gerhard Berger, Nelson Piquet and Nigel Mansell, and by lap 4 the lead had grown to 5.5 seconds. Michele Alboreto's Ferrari was an early retirement after being hit by Alex Caffi's Dallara. Berger passed Senna on that lap at the second-gear Racetrack Hairpin and began a determined drive, passing Prost at the same place on lap 14. By lap 23 he had a 3 second lead coming up to lap Stefano Modena and Rene Arnoux. The Ligier turned in and took both drivers off in a violent collision. This left the McLarens in their usual 1-2 position although Senna was battling a faulty gearbox. Piquet was maintaining 3rd ahead of the Williams of Riccardo Patrese and Mansell.
