Kimi Antonelli's F1 ascension appears a masterstroke – have Mercedes found their answer to Max Verstappen?
Last summer, just before Kimi Antonelli was announced as Lewis Hamilton's replacement at Mercedes, a video of the Italian teenager went viral on social media. Reposted by thousands, it gave a sparkling insight into the driver tipped to be the next big thing in Formula 1. In conversation with his engineers at F2 team Prema, Antonelli is asked to recall a host of qualifying lap times from his past few years of racing. This, those present stated, was Antonelli's biggest talent; not his lightning speed behind the wheel but his meticulous motorsport memory bank. Lo and behold, Antonelli reeled off an array of lap times with precise accuracy. F2 teammate Ollie Bearman, now at Haas, could only watch on and laugh in disbelief. It is a fascinating insight into Antonelli, the 18-year-old hotshot whom Mercedes boss Toto Wolff has risked his post-Hamilton legacy on. A teenager whose mental fortitude is perhaps more impressive than his undoubted raw pace in a racing car. So far, six races in, Wolff's gamble to replace one of the greatest ever with an untried rookie looks like a masterstroke. Antonelli has already broken records: the youngest-driver to score points, after a sumptuous recovery drive from 16th to fourth in the season-opening rain in Melbourne. And after his surprise pole position for the sprint race at the last round in Miami, he became the youngest-driver to ever record a pole position in any F1 format. Sebastian Vettel, the previous record holder, was three years older at 21. Released with exquisite timing, one day after the Miami Gand Prix, Antonelli's ascension to Formula One has been chronicled in a new 45-minute documentary on Netflix, titled 'The Seat.' Made in partnership with Mercedes sponsor WhatsApp, it gives a quickfire behind-the-scenes glance at Wolff's reaction to Hamilton's exit and how Antonelli – ahead of the likes of Carlos Sainz and Max Verstappen – quickly sprinted to the front of Wolff's thinking in filling the spot next to George Russell this season. Since signing for Mercedes at the age of 12, the boy from Bologna has been hailed as a prodigy. Archival footage in the documentary shows Antonelli, whose father Marco also raced domestically, romping to victory in the top-tier of go-karting in 2018, aged just 12. Having won FRECA in 2023 – the de facto European F4 championship – he skipped F3 last year and jumped straight to F2, finishing sixth and winning two races. But as The Seat highlights, his most valuable time on track last year came in testing previous Mercedes F1 cars at venues such as Silverstone, Austria and Jerez. With Hamilton's ex-engineer Peter 'Bono' Bonnington the guide in his ear, Antonelli was given 5,600 miles (roughly 30 full F1 races) to prepare for the biggest challenge of his life. All this, before he'd even passed his road driving test in Italy, which he ticked off in January. These stats have not been lost on experts this year, in light of Liam Lawson's rapid two-race demotion at Red Bull, in charting how invaluable Mercedes's thorough planning has been in adjusting Antonelli to the Formula 1 circus. There has, we should not forget, been one hiccup. His F1 debut in Monza last September, one day before official confirmation of his 2025 pick, ended after just 10 minutes in practice. In his first lap, he set the timing sheets alight. At the end of his second flying lap, he spun and smashed the car into the wall at Parabolica corner. 'That day, I let down my whole family,' Antonelli said in The Seat. 'My dad was not happy with me. I cried as well, just didn't want to see anyone. Just wanted to go home.' It was an unforgiving lesson into the fine margins between risk and reward in F1. This weekend, Antonelli returns home to Italy's other stop on the calendar. After a whistlestop six-race opening to the 2025 season, covering three continents, F1 starts its traditional European summer season in Imola, for a race which is likely to be the last at this old-school circuit in Emilia-Romagna. Yet while the majority of spectators will be donning the scarlet red of Ferrari, they will be in an unusual position of having a local star to support too. Antonelli is the first Italian F1 driver since Antonio Giovanazzi departed in 2021. More astonishingly, no Italian driver has won an F1 race since Giancarlo Fisichella in 2006. Antonelli's opening stint – five top-10 finishes from six grands prix, sixth in the world championship ahead of Ferrari's Hamilton – has impressed onlookers in the paddock. His charming post-race interviews, conducted in both his native Italian and excellent grasp of English, have also warmed him to the sport's faithful. Wrapped in black-and-silver overalls, the future looks bright. Mercedes technical director James Allison spoke for the whole team in The Seat when describing Antonelli as 'precious and special.' What would represent a successful rookie campaign for Antonelli? No championship standing goals; simply keeping in touch with Russell, in his fourth year at Mercedes, round by round. Wolff has already insisted it is a year for learning, as Antonelli lays the groundwork for what is tipped to be a long and successful career. But Miami, a circuit he had never driven at before, gave a tantalising teaser into Antonelli's potential. His pole-setting lap was stunning; his drop from first to fourth after turn one in the subsequent sprint a sign that race-craft can only come with experience. Yet Antonelli is wise beyond his years and, some might say, this decade's answer to Verstappen in the 2010s. The comparisons, given their rapid teenage debuts, are obvious. Wolff has also made no secret of his regret at not signing the Dutch star as a teenager, when Red Bull beat him to the post. Whether Antonelli can fulfil his potential in the manner of Verstappen in recent years is another question. Mercedes are rumoured, at this early stage, to be the frontrunners for 2026, amid new engine and chassis regulations. Could Antonelli really be a title contender next year? Vettel's record as the youngest F1 title-holder stands at 23 years of age; Antonelli has until 2029 to better that line in the sand. Yet at this stage, talk of world championships is far-fetched. A podium will be Antonelli's first target, and what better place than Imola, 25 miles from home, this weekend. But no matter what lies ahead on the journey, at least we know the numerical whiz himself will be on top of all his statistics along the way.

F1 grid: Starting positions for Saudi Arabian Grand Prix
F1 returns to Jeddah this weekend for the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix and round five of the 2025 F1 season.

‘Feeling really lucky': F1 rookie Ollie Bearman on building his dream life (and furniture)
'Ciao.' As Ollie Bearman dove down the inside of Liam Lawson at Turn 14 during the Chinese Grand Prix, the Haas driver said the informal Italian word that doubles as hello and goodbye, later repeating the switchback for a second time when he overtook an Alpine in a similar fashion. It seemed like a harmless exchange, a bit of celebration considering the rookie's lackluster performance in Australia and how difficult it is to overtake in Formula One (particularly when you're struggling in top speed at times, like Haas). Advertisement But he soon faced questions about it after the race in Shanghai, and expressed a bit of regret. 'No, it was literally in the moment and I feel really bad now because I wasn't being disrespectful,' Bearman explained to reporters, 'but I was just happy and wanting to share with the team. I won't do it again.' That's the thing about the 19-year-old Brit. Bearman doesn't hide his joy, whether it's to do with an overtake during a race or when chatting about moving into his new apartment in Monaco and building different pieces of furniture. There's a novelty about him, and despite his rapid rise through the Ferrari ranks, Bearman is staying authentically himself. 'I dedicated myself to racing for the vast majority of my life and all of my actions really revolve around that,' Bearman told The Athletic. 'But also now, the closer I get to F1, the more you realize that it can become all-consuming and too much. Sometimes you need to separate your work and F1 and sport life versus your own life.' Bearman's love for motorsports is no surprise. He was able to 'name every car on the road, pretty much' at five or six years old, and his father, uncle and grandfather have all competed at different motorsport levels. F1 races were on TV at weekends and Bearman remembers watching the likes of Lewis Hamilton, Jenson Button and Sebastian Vettel racing. He took his first steps into motorsports when he began karting at age six and entered a club race at eight in 2013. 'I always said I wanted to become an F1 driver, but everyone says that when they're karting,' Bearman says. 'It's the dream for everyone. It didn't really become a possibility until I got into F4. That was the first step on the single-seater ladder.' Bearman's talent was evident early on, finishing in the top five for the British Karting GP in 2014, and he made his single-seater debut in 2020. The following year, he became the first driver to win the German and Italian F4 championships. Advertisement And that's when Bearman's life changed — 'Ferrari spotted me.' The call came while the young Englishman was self-isolating for two weeks with Covid-19. Stuck indoors during the height of summer, his father gave him the news through the window: 'My dad told me they were interested and that I would be going to Italy to be tested by Ferrari.' Bearman vividly recalls that day at Maranello — the day of his first test. He remembers passing through the doors for the first time, feeling nervous while in the building, speaking with the bosses and driving onto the team's legendary Fiorano Circuit: 'It was a very nerve-racking but also proud moment. Even if it was just a Formula Four car, it was driving out of that iconic garage in Fiorano where I've seen people like Michael Schumacher, Vettel, Hamilton now, driving out of, and it was a very proud moment for myself.' Having impressed the team, Bearman moved to Italy at age 16, in 2021, to join the Ferrari Driver Academy. While he feels he 'overall upgraded by moving to Italy', the London-born teenager initially had a tough adjustment. He didn't know anyone, but he settled into Italian life, immersing himself in the language and eating out. One aspect of Italian culture he couldn't quite get into was the coffee scene. Bearman isn't a big coffee drinker — he orders 'a cappuccino but with as much milk as I can, so it doesn't really taste like coffee' from one specific store. He is a matcha fan, though. But in the end, he felt 'at home in my last few months there,' before he moved to Monaco, where many F1 drivers reside. Joining a Formula One academy program, as Bearman did with Ferrari, 'there is a route to F1 if you perform. So I knew from there if I played my cards right and drove fast enough, that I would have an opportunity to get to F1. 'Before that, it was a dream without any kind of backing, any possibility. But once Ferrari came along and I was performing well, that was when I realized I can make a career out of this.' Sitting inside Made in New York Pizza in Manhattan earlier this year, sporting a Haas top, Bearman spilled the details about his thrilling offseason project: putting together furniture for his Monaco apartment. He's built a bed, a table and a library (though he's not a big reader, so he'll need to fill it). He's bought pots and pans too, stocking his new kitchen. Advertisement A lot has changed since he joined the Ferrari Driver Academy three years ago. Bearman finished third in the 2022 Formula Three championship and sixth while competing in Formula Two the following year (and making his FP1 debut with Haas). Before driving during first practice in Mexico City in 2023, Bearman remembered 'feeling a lot of pressure and struggling to sleep the night before.' Self-confidence hasn't been a big issue for Bearman, though there have been moments he has struggled with it. He said, 'Confidence is always a tough thing. You have the media who watch your every move. By (coming) in this world, you also lose a bit of privacy in your entire life. It's one of the facts of the sport.' Hopping into the F1 car for his first free practice session last year is one example. The Mexico City GP weekend is one of the common weekends where teams will fulfil their young driver practice session requirements, thrusting them into the spotlight. 'It's impossible not to ask yourself questions — Am I good enough? Do I deserve to be here?' Bearman says. 'You do get a bit of impostor syndrome because you're sitting next to a seven-time world champion (Hamilton) and people who've been in this sport since I was born. It's natural, but I think straight away I performed pretty well here, and then you answer those questions in the back of your mind.' While he returned to F2 in 2024, the Briton did advance in his career by becoming a reserve driver for Haas and Ferrari. But he didn't expect to land in a driver's seat for a grand prix as quickly as he did. On March 8 last year, news broke that Carlos Sainz was out of the Saudi Arabian GP, sidelined with appendicitis, and required surgery. Bearman was tapped to make his debut. Bearman only had one practice session that Jeddah weekend to get up to speed, setting the 10th fastest time. Come qualifying, he narrowly missed out and lined up P11 for the grand prix, and scored points with a sixth-place finish in the iconic red car. Bearman says, 'By the end of the race, I was really strong in terms of my pace and my confidence. After that, I had no doubts as to whether I belonged in F1.' Advertisement Heading into the 2024 season, Bearman had his eyes on securing an F1 drive for 2025, and that Saudi Arabian GP weekend 'accelerated those plans.' The news broke during the British Grand Prix weekend, in July, that he'd joined Haas, but he says, 'We only really finalized it two days beforehand.' He had to be careful who he told the news to before it was announced because 'my grandad loves talking on social media.' 'I think they found out five minutes before the world found out I was in F1. It was, of course, a very proud moment because you think back to all of the sacrifice and hard work that I've done to get in this position. It's since I was six years old that I've been aiming to have a spot in this sport, professionally.' The Briton's supersub story didn't end there, as he replaced Kevin Magnussen twice (when the Dane received a race ban for Azerbaijan and also when he was ill in Brazil). Bearman ended the season with seven points, good enough for 18th in the final drivers' standings. 'My big takeaway from last year is, of course, that sometimes you get lucky, and I was certainly very lucky last year to get the opportunities I did. But through the hard work that I did in the background, I was able to make the most of these opportunities and prove that I was deserving of them,' Bearman says. 'Because it's very easy to say that I was lucky to get these opportunities, and I fully agree with that, but I could quite easily have squandered them and not made the most of them and not shown that I deserved a full-time seat in Formula One.' Before Bearman hopped into Haas' VF-25, his first full-time F1 seat, he learned the power and how valuable it is to spend time away from the sport. Formula One is all-consuming, with 24 grands prix and six sprint races across 21 countries worldwide from March until December. Even during the weeks between racing, it's not a complete pause. Bearman says that, early in the week, 'you're still thinking about what you could have done better in the previous race, and then you're already thinking towards the next race.' And then there's the case of visiting the factory and simulator time — or in Haas' case, going to Maranello for the sim. 'It's really tough to fully switch off, but I try to. A big way I find to switch off from racing, which sounds a bit strange, is by training,' Bearman says. 'In a way, it's making me better in the car because it's making me more fit and more ready to race. But at the same time, I find I'm in my own world. I'm by myself, and sometimes, it's really nice to do that. You spend weekends talking to so many people and being surrounded by so many people. Sometimes it's really nice to be by yourself and with yourself, with your own mind.' Advertisement Cycling is a hobby he's recently picked up, and while he's not a fan of track walks, he'll sometimes run them — after all, he knows 'exactly where the finish line is.' He has picked up other hobbies over time, such as photography, because he feels 'the worst thing for me is when I'm not busy, when I'm not occupied and doing something, I tend to go crazy.' A post shared by Scuderia Ferrari HP (@scuderiaferrari) That can make reserve-driver weekends challenging, but in a lighthearted way. Outside of being in the meetings and learning what you can, it's much quieter than when you're in the driver's seat. Bearman took matters into his own hands during the 2024 Singapore GP weekend and approached Ferrari. 'I said I was thinking of stuff to do, and I saw the camera, and I was like, 'That's my job for the weekend'.' Taking photos throughout that weekend was his first time picking up a proper camera. He opted for doing black-and-white photos, which he described as easier than working in color. He took over Ferrari's X account during a session as well, writing the posts himself and receiving confirmation from the team before it was posted. 'I'm trying to kind of experience the weekend from every different angle,' he says. 'I've done the driving side of things. I would still definitely take the driving side of everything else, but it's nice to try some different perspectives.' Being a reserve driver helped Bearman appreciate the different jobs and aspects that make the teams and this sport run — and ultimately played a role in preparing him for this moment. Before the new season started, he told The Athletic that he viewed it as '24 opportunities to improve myself, my performances in the car, my mindset, my physicality, everything.' Australia was a rough outing after limited practice time due to crashes, but it was a learning moment. China saw him bounce back and extract the maximum during the race with a 10th-place finish after car changes were made post-sprint. Some of the remaining 22 tracks he'll be familiar with, or likely encounter new situations. He'll take each step as it comes and one of his priorities remains unchanged — relish this moment. 'My goal for 2025 is, step one, to really enjoy it because I think that's really easy to forget,' Bearman said in February. 'The reason I'm here is because it's my biggest passion in the world. I wake up feeling really lucky every day to say that this is my job. I mean, how many people get to do a job they truly love?'

F1 grid: Starting positions for Chinese Grand Prix sprint race
The second race of the 2025 F1 season takes place in Shanghai with the Chinese Grand Prix - and the first sprint weekend of the new campaign. Lando Norris won the season-opening Australian Grand Prix for McLaren after surviving a slide off track in the rain and a late challenge from second-place Max Verstappen. George Russell was third for Mercedes. Norris' teammate and potential title rival Oscar Piastri span off the road and recovered to finish ninth after a late overtake on Lewis Hamilton, who was 10th in a frustrating debut for Ferrari. Verstappen took a commanding win in Shanghai last season ahead of Norris, but teams and drivers have little recent experience of a track which didn't host F1 from 2020-2023 during the Covid pandemic.
