• Valtteri Bottas second with Max Verstappen third
• Hamilton took lead on turn one and stayed in front
Lewis Hamilton has expressed in the past his admiration for Ferrari and in the paddock of the Spanish Grand Prix this weekend, questions of a potential future move to the Scuderia were once again bandied about. After his dominant victory for Mercedes at the Circuit de Catalunya and Ferrari’s capitulation to the once more all-conquering silver arrows, it is difficult to imagine any entreaty from the sport’s most historic marque that would currently appeal to the British driver.
Hamilton completed his victory from his teammate, Valtteri Bottas, in second having beaten the Finn off the start. Having taken the lead through turn one it was not to be relinquished. Ferrari’s difficult weekend yielded only fourth and fifth for Sebastian Vettel and Charles Leclerc.
