Teenager arrives
Automatically saved draft
According to a media report, teenager Andrea Kimi Antonelli will succeed record Formula 1 world champion Lewis Hamilton at Mercedes.
The deal with the 17-year-old is a done deal, reported "Bild".
Hamilton is leaving Mercedes at the end of this season to drive for Ferrari in future. One of team boss Toto Wolff's preferred drivers was also world champion Max Verstappen from Red Bull. However, the latter is unlikely to be willing to leave his current team.
