Hamilton won Ferrari’s Barcelona Grand Prix with a three-stop strategy and a late Virtual Safety Car, giving him his first Ferrari victory and ending longstanding droughts. Leclerc struggled with results, including a Monaco crash and Q3 exits, while Francesco Cigarini argues Hamilton’s setup approach revealed and corrected Leclerc’s tendency to push the rear end, guiding Ferrari toward a more robust, championship-ready package. Through seven rounds, Hamilton leads Leclerc 4-3 in qualifying and 5-2 in Grand Prix results after the Barcelona win.
