The partnership between Scuderia Ferrari HP and Lewis Hamilton, respectively the most prestigious team and the most successful driver in Formula 1 history, wrote an unforgettable chapter at the 2026 Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix, where they celebrated their first victory together.

The 7-time Formula 1 World Champion achieved the feat thanks to a superb performance that once again showcased his relentless determination. Starting from the front row after a great qualifying session, Hamilton built his victory on perfect tyre management and an excellent strategy, backed by flawless work from the team throughout his three pit stops.

A perfectly timed strategic call eventually put him in the lead of the race. Once out front, Lewis made the most of having fresher tyres than his rivals, setting a pace that nobody could match. Bell Racing was also part of this memorable moment, with the brand serving as the technical partner of Scuderia Ferrari HP. For the 2026 helmet, marking his 20th season in Formula 1, Hamilton remained faithful to the yellow colour scheme that had defined the beginning of his career, when his exceptional talent was already evident, enriched with red details as a tribute to the Prancing Horse team.

“Winning my first race with Ferrari is something I’ve dreamt about since I was a child, and to finally achieve it feels incredible,” commented Hamilton after taking the chequered flag. “I’ve been fortunate enough to experience many special moments in my career, but this one is different. Ferrari has the greatest fans in the world and seeing their passion, their energy and their support makes this victory even more meaningful. This is a day I’ll never forget.”
