June 2, 1996: Michael Schumacher wins his first race for Ferrari in Barcelona.

June 14, 2026: Lewis Hamilton wins his first race for Ferrari in Barcelona.

Thirty years apart. Same circuit. Both delivering Ferrari's first victory of a new era... But the poetry doesn't end there: Lewis stands on the highest step alongside a Mercedes in P2 and a McLaren in P3, the two teams that wrote the chapters of his career before Ferrari. And together, they create the first all-British podium since 1968. Some stories are written. Others seem to write themselves.

sports is not serious except it is its not important so you have to calm down a little bit but also its the most important thing in the world nothing has ever been more important its dead serious its life or death but maybe we can all relax a little bit but dont relax too much because it is so crucial it is so massive it is culture it is identity it is intrinsically woven into the fabric of society however we could maybe chill out sometimes except i wont because its that serious its so so serious

I can confirm the news is after a disappointing season, Alisha Palmowski is now replacing Max at Red Bull. Max now has been demoted to the Anastasia Beverly Hills f1a vcarb. Thank you for attending my press conference.

continues to baffle me how clear it is that no one in this sport has learnt anything (or cares to learn anything) from ad21. they’re talking about abu dhabi 21 as if it was purely done to get an exciting finish to the race and not the most egregious example of match fixing we’ve ever seen. they’re talking about the crowd’s reaction to this safety car finish like they were disappointed by a slow end, no consideration given to the fact that it’s a british crowd who watched their driver robbed under a safety car and - in a sense - robbed again today. and now they’re talking about the regulations going forward as if the most important thing is a last lap spectacle and not sporting integrity 😭. genuinely no hope for this sport when everyone giving commentary on it is as spineless and clueless as the people running it

George taking a question on behalf of Lewis and bringing up AD21 in relation to todays safety car procedure (and implying how it should have been followed correctly then to end under SC, like it was today)

George Russell: I mean, of course it's a shame for any race to finish into the Safety Car. But then you go back to Abu Dhabi ’21, and that is just how racing goes. Nobody can plan for somebody to have an incident, and the way F1 deal with it and FIA deal with it shouldn't be any different at the end of the race compared to the start of the race. Obviously, there was a lot of chat post-Abu Dhabi ’21. If you actually look at the number of races that have finished under the Safety Car over the past 20 years, it's not actually a lot. So, as I said, it is a shame, but what can you do? I don't think it should be different.

Lewis Hamilton: Yeah, same as George said. Not really much more to add.
