Lewis Hamilton: Ferrari driver says team can get to 'magical place' at top of F1 by building on early 2026 improvement

Lewis Hamilton has expressed confidence that Ferrari can reach a 'magical place' at the top of Formula 1, stating their current 2026 form is 'not it' for the team's ambitions. The seven-time world champion arrives at the Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix having finished second in each of the last two races, both times behind Mercedes' championship-leading Kimi Antonelli. Hamilton did not rule out Ferrari being in title contention later in the 2026 season as the team looks to build on its recent improvement.
