Kimi Antonelli completed his rapid rise to the F1 grid this year as
he signed to replace Ferrari-bound Lewis Hamilton. Antonelli
skipped F3 level competition to partake in the F2 series last year
before being ushered into a full-time race seat at Mercedes. The
18-year-old enjoyed a strong opening phase to his career, scoring
48 points in the opening six rounds. He also bagged a surprise
sprint pole position in Miami, but crossed the line in seventh
place at that shorter race. Antonelli has failed to score points at
the last three rounds as reliability issues ended his races from
Imola and Barcelona, while a qualifying crash in Monaco left him
down the order for the grand prix. But has Antonelli impressed you
during his opening stint in F1? Have your say below!
