Congrat's to "The Boss"
I don't know if he would have won without the VSC.... Probably.....Who knows? I wouldn't bet against him.
Dude's on fire!

A win for Hamilton. I'm sure he's happy to finally be getting his footing at Ferrari.

Great race by Hamilton.
Has Ferrari passed Mercedes?
Even though Antonelli had a car failure, George has to know that Antonelli ownes him.Last edited by F1nKS; Yesterday at 21:08.

Great to see Lewis back on the top step. Whatever Ferrari brought to Barcelona clearly worked because that car looked seriously fast all weekend.

Barcelona tells a different story of how this season is going to pan out. The great Mercedes still has a gremlin with warm temperatures. A very rare thing to see Ferrari outsmart Mercedes with strategy. When everything seems to click, people work wonders, and Ferrari operated with surprisingly brilliant precision at Barcelona.
It was a sweet victory for Ferrari, but more so, it was sweet validation for Sir Lewis Hamilton. It was a victory that gave notice to Mercedes that this season may not be an easy one to win. Plagued with engine reliability in the face of a resurgent Ferrari spells trouble for the Woking team. Antonelli did not fail us, as he took the fight to Russell and claimed the second spot before disaster set in. Like Hamilton versus Alonso and Vettel vs Webber, Antonelli dents George's confidence once more.
The season is still long, and there are many tracks in hot climates. Mercedes may win it, but they are going to do so with Ferrari giving them a rough ride all the way to Abu Dhabi.Better a witty fool than a foolish wit.

On paper, maybe. But you could easily do the same with F1. Because the final regulations weren't set until end of 2025, things were changing every time. Well you know when engine regulations were...
