Lewis Hamilton Wins First Ferrari Race, Ends Antonelli's Streak at Spanish GPPreviousNext

Lewis Hamilton secured his first Formula One victory for Ferrari at the 2026 Spanish Grand Prix, ending Kimi Antonelli's five-race winning streak. At 41, Hamilton became the oldest F1 race winner since 1970. The race featured a decisive Virtual Safety Car that aided Hamilton's three-stop strategy. George Russell finished second for Mercedes, with Lando Norris third for McLaren, marking the first all-British podium since 1968. Antonelli retired late due to a technical issue, reducing his championship lead over Hamilton.
