Kimi Antonelli has taken five straight wins and opened a 66‑point gap over Lewis Hamilton, yet the 19‑year‑old Mercedes driver says he still has “questions to answer.”
Antonelli admits last year’s struggles helped him grow, and now he feels stronger both as a driver and a person. “I want to focus on the process and enjoy the weekend,” he said ahead of Barcelona.

George Russell, hampered by bad luck, concedes the title fight is out of reach but insists he’s aiming to rediscover form.
Praise has come from Fernando Alonso, who called Antonelli “an incredible talent,” and Max Verstappen, who said his consistency at such a young age is “very impressive.”
