Mercedes F1 star Kimi Antonelli may have made history at the Miami Grand Prix on Sunday, but his victory didn’t come easily.
Mercedes F1 star Kimi Antonelli made history at the Miami Grand Prix by becoming the first driver in the sport’s history to convert his first three career pole positions into victories.
Antonelli’s win in Miami put him 20 points ahead of his teammate George Russell in the drivers’ standings, solidifying his position at the top.
Despite his impressive victory, the 19-year-old faced challenges during the race, including overheating tires and an electrical issue with his steering wheel, which was likened to a faulty iPhone charging port by Sky Sports’ Ted Kravitz.
