The bold Ferrari turnaround that enabled Hamilton's Barcelona win

Lewis Hamilton won the Formula 1 Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix driving for Ferrari, a result enabled by a significant turnaround in the team's performance. Ferrari made the strategic decision to cut short its 2025 car development in order to focus resources on the new 2026 Formula 1 regulations, which has led to marked improvements throughout the current season. The win represents a major milestone for Ferrari, a team that has not won a constructors' championship since 2008, and for Hamilton in his first season with the Scuderia.
