Formula 1: Hamilton Grabs First Ferrari Victory As Antonelli Retires At Barcelona GP

By IANS News June 14, 2026 • 21:00 PM View: 67

Spanish Grand Prix: Lewis Hamilton claimed a magnificent maiden Grand Prix victory for Ferrari at the Spanish Grand Prix in Barcelona on Sunday, ending Mercedes' unbeaten run in the 2026 Formula One season and reigniting his title challenge with a commanding drive.

The seven-time world champion had a well-executed race, finishing ahead of Mercedes' George Russell and McLaren's Lando Norris. This victory marked his first Grand Prix win in almost two years and was Ferrari's best result of the season.

Hamilton's win came from an aggressive three-stop strategy that proved effective. Ferrari started him on soft tires, which kept him from challenging for the lead at the beginning. However, the Italian team quickly adjusted and committed to a three-stop plan.
