Did the Barcelona GP earn a perfect 10/10, or was there more you wanted to see?

It’s as close as you can get. Pole sitter didn’t win, wasn’t a procession, some great overtakes, great strategy by Ferrari, F1 history made. Non- Hamilton fans won’t care he won first race for Ferrari but he’s oldest F1 driver ever to win any race + first all Brit podium since 1968.

He isn't the oldest driver to win a race. I believe he's 3rd or 4th on the list.

Amazing result for Lewis , he deserves it as he works so hard, thats why he can still do it , if he gets the car and it looks like Ferrari is going to be a force going forward, it will be so exciting seeing him go for his 8th WC , Ferrari's upgrades have propelled them , you cant hide at Barcelona, Ferrari and Lewis are back 😀

That's one of the most encouraging parts of this win - the fact he did at the ultimate proving ground track. They always see you see the real pecking order here

10/10 on the historic front, 7/10 as a race - more strategic intrigue than wheel to wheel racing

The end made it more interesting but after Hamilton took the lead, even as one of his biggest fans, it became a formality

aaditya.krishnamurthy3mo ago

To answer the question, I’ll give it an 8

I think I'd give Barcelona a solid 8.5/10! Races with variable pit strategy options are always super compelling. We had fun battles, a new 2026 winner, a tightening title battle, and major retirements. It could have been dicier, but I LOVED it!

Yeah lots of drama in every department, shame we didn’t get more overtaking action at the end as I think it was building into a big spectacular finish

Vsc prevented a 10/10, would have been great to see lewis hunt the leaders down. Think he'd have got them!

seanfisher3mo ago

I think the 20s lead he pulled at the end proves he was going to do it either way, but overtaking for the lead would have been brilliant

elizablackstock3mo ago

Man, it would have been so cool to see him go after the Mercs. It'd really show what the Ferraris are capable of!
