The British driver, now racing for Ferrari, showed his class by mastering the technical and demanding Japanese circuit, reaffirming his status as one of the sport’s top competitors.

Speaking after the session, Hamilton said, “It was a tough fight out there. Max is always aggressive, but that’s racing. I’m just glad we kept it clean and managed to put in a strong lap.”
The competitive spirit between Hamilton and Verstappen is once again heating up, promising an exciting race weekend ahead. With Ferrari and Red Bull both looking strong, fans can expect fireworks at Suzuka as the championship battle intensifies.
