Historic British Triumph

At the Barcelona-Catalunya circuit on Sunday, the Spanish Grand Prix delivered an all-British podium – the first since 1968. Lewis Hamilton, driving for Ferrari, claimed his maiden victory with the iconic team.

Podium Finishers

George Russell of Mercedes finished second, while current champion Lando Norris of McLaren took third. This marks the first time since the 1968 French Grand Prix that all three podium spots have been occupied by British drivers.

Hamilton's Achievement

This win is Hamilton's first since joining Ferrari this season. The seven-time world champion's last victory came at the 2021 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix. After a lengthy drought, he returns to the top step.

The performance of all three British drivers drew cheers from the crowd, and this result will surely be remembered as one of the season's highlights.
