The Spanish Grand Prix was supposed to be a key race for Ferrari in the 2025 Formula 1 world championship. And while the race saw the Scuderia return to second position in the constructors’ standings, the expected step forward was clearly not achieved – and Lewis Hamilton was left asking for a shift in focus to next year.
In the Barcelona race, Ferrari capitalised on having two drivers in the top six, while Mercedes and Red Bull had just one each in the top 10 as a result of Andrea Kimi Antonelli’s reliability issues and Yuki Tsunoda’s ongoing struggles at the team - while Max Verstappen's penalty dropped him to 10th to give Ferrari a extra boost.
