After seemingly hitting rock bottom morale-wise in qualifying for the 2025 Bahrain Grand Prix, Lewis Hamilton rebounded by guiding his Ferrari to fifth place from ninth on the grid. Team-mate Charles Leclerc was fourth after starting second.
For Hamilton, this was arguably the best result possible without retirements ahead.
Afterwards, Hamilton was the most upbeat he has been since winning the sprint race in China, suggesting he had made a breakthrough in understanding the car, and how he needs to adapt to get the best out of it.
