This is also the first 'proper' race following the compression ratio checks (introduced in Monaco), and the first after Ferrari's second major update package
The VSC timing may have gifted HAM the lead, but it was HIS PACE that put him there! 🏆
📊 RACE PACE, PIT-EQUATED (1 extra pit = 22s lost):
1) 🟥Ferrari / HAM
2) 🟩Mercedes / ANT (first time they're not P1)
3) 🟧McL / NOR (~ same pace as ANT!)
4) 🟦RBR / VER

Ferrari's updates (worth an estimated 0.2s @GiulyDuchessa) worked: they were the team that lost the least time to '25, and had a shot at a 1-3 finish! HAM did a great job once again, while LEC must get out of his own head
Compared to last year, Merc lost 0.13s to Ferrari, RBR 0.48s, McL 0.85s! #F1
Just one year ago (In Hungary)
The change in feeling and mindset has been massive since the new regulations took effect!
Aston was over 6.4s slower than last year, basically F1.5 💀(ALO is rumoured to be in talks with Alpine)

The Hard was the tyre to be! The Medium had worse degradation and pace (as the drivers couldn't push as much on it), but still miles better than the Soft
The upgraded Ferrari was not only very quick (1-3 was possible, their first real shot), but also no other car was faster (342km/h) on their best lap - something they had never come close to before! 💡
The car now has very little drag, with only a power deficit standing between them and a win ✅
#F1
Bortoleto hit 360 km/h - a new record for this generation of cars! 🚀
Audi has less drag than any other team, consistently posting the best race top speeds despite a sub-par ICE. Fix that, and they’ll be flying on the straights!
We might see 370 km/h in Monza/Las Vegas/Mexico…

First Hamilton's win in Red 🟥
First Ferrari win in Barcelona since 2013
First Ferrari win for the HAM/LEC lineup
Ferrari wins in Barcelona 30 years after Schumacher took their first victory there!
With an updated engine, HAM can genuinely fight for the WDC!!!
