MELBOURNE : Red Bull driver Sergio Perez bemoaned a terrible day at the Australian Grand Prix after a slide into gravel in qualifying left him back of the grid for Sunday's race and dented his championship hopes.

He was confined to the team's garage for much of the practice session as engineers worked on his car.
