Lewis Hamilton claims first Ferrari win at Barcelona Grand Prix

Lewis Hamilton won his first race for Ferrari at the 2026 Barcelona Grand Prix, dedicating his victory to the team and fans with a radio message: “Forza Ferrari. Grazie a tutti.” The win, his first on the podium since joining Ferrari, sparked widespread social‑media buzz and speculative jokes linking his performance to a rumored relationship with Kim Kardashian.

Championship leader Kimi Antonelli retired on lap 63 after a Mercedes mechanical failure. He described his feelings after the incident, saying, “Mi sento vuoto dentro.” Despite his disappointment, Antonelli went to the podium to congratulate Hamilton, embracing him and praising the British driver’s achievement.
