Andrea Kimi Antonelli will start the Formula 1 Belgian Grand Prix from the pitlane due to being knocked out in Q1 during qualifying.

Antonelli, an Italian rookie, has faced challenges since the second quarter of the season despite initially showing promise with points in his debut race and a pole in Sprint qualifying in Miami. However, struggles have persisted, leading to Antonelli feeling low on confidence with his driving performance and car handling. He admitted to attempting to forcefully change his driving style, leading to unnatural and forced driving behaviors, different from his teammate George Russell’s approach.
