Hamilton's big Ferrari F1 'breakthrough' explained

At the 2026 Canadian Grand Prix, Lewis Hamilton described it as 'the happiest day of my Ferrari days so far,' expressing comfort with the SF26 car and his engineering team. In stark contrast, teammate Charles Leclerc called it 'one of, if not the, worst weekend of my career,' acknowledging he needs to reach Hamilton's level. The result marked a notable shift in form between the two Ferrari drivers, with Hamilton appearing at ease exploiting the car's low-speed handling characteristics.
