Red Bull's Daniel Ricciardo disqualified from the results of the Australian GP

Daniel Ricciardo has been denied a dream debut for Red Bull after being disqualified from the results of the Australian GP.

Magnussen's second place represents the best result for a driver on their F1 debut since Jacques Villeneuve also finished runner-up at the Melbourne season-opener in 1996. Ricciardo's demise also promotes Sergio Perez into the points-paying positions in tenth, giving Force India their own double points finish. With Sebastian Vettel retiring early on in Melbourne, Ricciardo's disqualification also means Red Bull's title defence begins with a rare scoreless race - their first since the 2012 Italian GP and just third since 2009. Revised 2014 Australian GP points positions:
1. Nico Rosberg, Mercedes.
2. Kevin Magnussen, McLaren.
3. Jenson Button, McLaren.
4. Fernando Alonso, Ferrari.
5. Valtteri Bottas, Williams.
6. Nico Hulkenberg, Force India.
7. Kimi Raikkonen, Ferrari.
8. Jean-Eric Vergne, Toro Rosso.
9. Daniil Kvyat, Toro Rosso.
10. Sergio Perez, Force India.
