A new Hamilton
Among the positive notes for Ferrari at Australian Grand Prix the race performance of Lewis Hamiltonauthor of an excellent start and a regular and consistent race that saw him finish fourth, but in the wake of teammate Charles Leclerc.

Of course, the long-awaited podium didn’t arrive this time either, but with this level of performance it could only be a matter of time, not too long.
