2026 Formula 1 world championship standings after the Barcelona Grand Prix
The 2026 F1 championship standings after the Barcelona Grand Prix
Kimi Antonelli's Formula 1 championship lead took a hammering after he retired from the Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix, while rival Lewis Hamilton took a first victory with Ferrari.
Antonelli saw his championship lead cut to 41 points after Hamilton broke his Ferrari duck in Spain.
With George Russell in second place, the pressure was further added to test Antonelli's title credentials.
Charles Leclerc lost ground after retiring late in the race, while Lando Norris closed to within two points of the Ferrari man after completing an all-British podium in third place.
Alpine and Racing Bulls added to their hauls with points for all four drivers, while Oscar Piastri and Max Verstappen lost ground on the front-runners despite being among the few drivers to finish on the lead lap.
