HAMILTON ‘CAN STICK MIDDLE FINGER UP’ TO DOUBTERS – NORRIS

Lewis Hamilton silenced critics with his maiden Ferrari win in Barcelona, and Lando Norris believes he can "stick the middle finger up" to every doubter. Hamilton's victory, his first since the 2024 Belgian Grand Prix, marks a dramatic comeback after a challenging 2025 season where he went winless and podium-less, even calling himself "useless." Now in 2026, Hamilton has found his stride, securing three podiums before this triumphant win with the Scuderia.

Norris, who shared the podium with Hamilton and George Russell, highlighted the historic all-British top three – a first since the 1968 United States Grand Prix. Norris, a long-time admirer, found it "cool" to see Hamilton and Ferrari's partnership pay dividends. He acknowledged the online "crap" Hamilton endured, stating the win serves as sweet vindication. This resurgence by Hamilton with Ferrari drastically shifts the championship landscape, proving he's back in the fight and a serious threat.
