Valtteri Bottas says there are still "a lot of things" he needs to learn about and improve at Mercedes as he continues to adapt to life at the world champions.
Bottas qualified and finished third on his Mercedes debut at the Australian Grand Prix, the tenth podium of his career. The Finn was only confirmed at the team in January following world champion Nico Rosberg's shock retirement at the end of 2016.
Though he did not beat teammate Lewis Hamilton in qualifying or the race Mercedes non-executive chairman Niki Lauda said Bottas had matched what Rosberg would have achieved.
