Lewis Hamilton set the track ablaze at the Chinese F1 Grand Prix by clinching his first win for Ferrari in an electrifying sprint race. Starting from pole position, Hamilton charged into turn one and built a commanding lead, leaving fans on the edge of their seats.
An intense early duel with Red Bull Racing’s Max Verstappen kept the adrenaline pumping until lap 15, when McLaren’s Oscar Piastri snatched second place at the back straight’s hairpin, pushing Verstappen to third. The thrilling battle on track delivered a complete podium show for racing enthusiasts.
Not all drivers had a smooth day. McLaren’s Lando Norris, who started sixth, lost valuable positions after going wide at turn six and eventually finished eighth, demonstrating that every lap counts in F1.
Arriving in Shanghai after a challenging season opener in Australia—where Hamilton finished tenth on his Ferrari debut—this victory signals a powerful comeback. What an epic turnaround that sets the tone for an exciting season ahead! 🏎️🔥
