Oscar Piastri reflects on 'tough lessons' and his goals for 2026 Lando Norris 'proved to myself that I have what it takes' after title success Lewis Hamilton was in high spirits at the end of a positive Barcelona Shakedown week for Ferrari. Lewis Hamilton has spoken about an “incredibly enthusiastic” mood at Ferrari in the build-up to the 2026 season, with the seven-time World Champion feeling a “winning mentality in every single person more than ever”. Hamilton and Ferrari enjoyed a solid start to F1's new era of regulations at last week's Barcelona Shakedown – the famous Italian marque working through their programme without major issues and learning plenty about the SF-26 package. Sharing his reflections afterwards, Hamilton said: “It's been a really enjoyable week, honestly. “Of course, there's always small things, but we didn't really have any downtime moments. “We definitely have work to do to improve, of course, like everybody does, but I think we've had great debriefs, everyone's really on it – I really feel the winning mentality in every single person in the team more than ever, so it's a positive.” Hamilton, who endured a difficult first season at Ferrari, went on to ponder what might lie ahead for himself and the team in 2026 – the Briton pointing out that the latest generation of F1 car “is actually a little bit more fun to drive”. I think Red Bull and Haas did some great running as well, so we don't really know where we are, but I think it's a solid first week and we can really build from here. I'm just seeing that everyone's really coming with new energy this year, which is great.”
