Lewis Hamilton won the Barcelona Grand Prix
Seven-time world champion and Ferrari driver Lewis Hamilton won the seventh round of the Formula-1—the Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix, which concluded on Sunday, June 14.
This triumph was a landmark moment for the British driver, as he climbed to the top step of the podium for the first time since his victory at the 2024 Belgian Grand Prix.
Following the leader across the finish line was his former teammate George Russell, with reigning world champion Lando Norris rounding out the top three.
The race in Spain was marked by high intensity and a large number of retirements, which significantly affected the final standings.
The leaders’ main pursuer, Max Verstappen of the Red Bull team, finished in fourth place, just missing the podium.
His closest pursuer was Oscar Piastri in a McLaren, who took fifth place, while young Red Bull driver Isaac Ajjar rounded out the top six.
The second half of the top ten saw a fierce battle among the midfield teams.
Alpine drivers Pierre Gasly and Franco Collapinto maintained a steady pace and confidently crossed the finish line in seventh and eighth places, respectively.
The final points at the Spanish round were earned by Racing Bulls drivers Liam Lawson and Arvid Lindblad, who rounded out the top 10.
Gabriel Bortoletto in an Audi and Carlos Sainz, representing Williams, finished outside the points.
Esteban Ocon in a Haas and Sergio Pérez in a Cadillac finished Sunday’s race in thirteenth and fourteenth positions, respectively.
This stage proved to be a real test for the cars, as eight renowned drivers were unable to reach the finish line due to crashes and mechanical issues.
