Lewis Hamilton secured an emotional first Grand Prix victory for Ferrari at the Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix on Sunday. The win marks Hamilton's first race victory since joining the Italian team at the start of 2025 and his first Formula 1 win in nearly two years.
The seven-time world champion, now 41, has become the oldest winner in Formula One since Australian Jack Brabham in 1970. Hamilton's victory came as championship leader Kimi Antonelli retired from the race, ending Antonelli's five-race run of success.
This victory serves as a moment of redemption for Hamilton following a first season at Ferrari that left him and others questioning his performance. Reflecting on the win, Hamilton stated he never gave up hope and struggled to find the words to express the significance of the achievement.
