Hamilton Shines in Ferrari Debut with Sprint Win at Chinese GP 2025
What a race, what a moment! Lewis Hamilton has just claimed his first victory for Ferrari in the 2025 Chinese Grand Prix Sprint Race, and what a way to do it! In only his second race with the Scuderia, the seven-time world champion showed exactly why he remains one of the greatest drivers in F1 history.
Right from the start, Hamilton was in control. He fended off a fierce challenge from Max Verstappen as they roared into the first corner. It was a classic battle—Hamilton in red, Verstappen in the charging Red Bull. But after those opening moments, Hamilton managed to pull ahead, showing immense pace and masterful tyre management.
Verstappen, who initially tried to keep up, began to struggle with his tyres, allowing McLaren’s Oscar Piastri to pounce. The young Australian driver put on a stellar performance, overtaking the reigning world champion with just five laps to go and securing a well-earned second place. Verstappen had to settle for third, an unusual sight considering his usual dominance in recent years.

Elsewhere on the grid, McLaren’s Lando Norris managed to salvage a single point by overtaking Lance Stroll in the final laps. George Russell and Charles Leclerc rounded out the top five, while Yuki Tsunoda, Kimi Antonelli, and Norris completed the points positions.
Hamilton’s victory today wasn’t just about speed—it was about strategy, experience, and resilience. After a tough season opener in Melbourne, where he was still adjusting to his new team, today’s win sends a clear message: Ferrari and Hamilton are serious contenders this season.
Speaking after the race, Hamilton acknowledged the challenge of transitioning to a new team but expressed his excitement about Ferrari’s potential. He emphasized the importance of patience and focus, saying, “It’s a marathon, not a sprint.” Well, today, it was both—a sprint and a masterclass in racecraft.
With qualifying coming up next, the big question remains: Can Hamilton keep up this momentum and take pole for the main event? Verstappen and Piastri will surely be looking for payback, and with tyre management being a crucial factor, the battle for victory is far from over.
Stay tuned, because this F1 season is already delivering unforgettable moments, and we’re only getting started!
