Mercedes not expecting Antonelli to be “killing it” in F2 next year
Antonelli, the Formula Regional European Championship winner, is moving up to the F2 category with Prema for 2024. Despite being a two-time European karting champion, this will be his first season in F2. Mercedes decided to skip F3 for Antonelli as they believe he is ready for the challenge of F2, which is the final step before F1. While there is a lot of hype surrounding him, Mercedes boss Toto Wolff wants to manage expectations and give Antonelli time to develop. There is no set timeline for how long Antonelli will be in F2, as his performance in 2024 will determine his future in the sport.
