Kobayashi a smash hit on return to Formula One


MELBOURNE (Reuters) - Japan's Kamui Kobayashi wasted no time in making an impression on his return to Formula One, ploughing his Caterham into the back of Felipe Massa's Williams before the first corner of the Australian Grand Prix on Sunday.

The mishap took both cars out of the race instantly, leaving Brazilian Massa fuming on his aborted debut for his new team and Kobayashi red-faced in his first race back after a year on the sidelines.
