Lewis Hamilton will be looking to make it four wins out of five as the Formula 1 circus rolls into Barcelona for the 2015 Spanish Grand Prix. The Briton is yet to finish outside to top two during the new season, and already leads Mercedes teammate Niko Rosberg by 27 points in the Drivers’ Championships.
Ferrari, meanwhile, will hope to continue their strong showing in the early races, cementing their position as Mercedes’ only credible threat for the Constructors’ Championships. While they trail the Silver Arrows by 57 points, the Scuderia already have nearly half the points they mustered from the whole of the 2014 season.
