Lewis Hamilton said his first Formula One sprint race win for Ferrari on Saturday felt “mega” hopes.
The seven-times world champion led from start to finish in the sprint, only his second race for Ferrari, in a stunning response to critics after his disappointing 10th in last weekend’s Melbourne season-opener.
It was the first time Hamilton, who joined from Mercedes in January, and Ferrari had won a sprint race since the shortened format was introduced in 2021.
Starting from first in a Ferrari, and winning in a Ferrari, is next level, man. It’s mega,” the six-times Chinese Grand Prix winner said.
“And I definitely didn’t expect to have it at the second race.”
