W15 cockpit is calling
Antonelli in a Mercedes as early as next week?
Andrea Kimi Antonelli looks set to follow in Lewis Hamilton's footsteps and succeed the seven-time Formula 1 world champion at Mercedes. The 17-year-old is expected to complete his first laps in the W15 as early as next week.
Kronen Zeitung als bevorzugte Google-Quelle hinzufügen According to Motorsport.com, Antonelli will complete a Friday training session in Monza in around a week's time. According to the report, the Italian has already been able to agree a contract with the racing team and the deal is to be officially announced in Monza.
Coming of age on Sunday
While Max Verstappen and Co. battle for victory in Zandvoort on Sunday, Antonelli will be celebrating his 18th birthday, which means he should also be able to step on the gas pedal in Formula 1. A premiere in the premier class of motorsport before the end of the season is therefore not out of the question.
Antonelli is already regarded as a great hope for the future of motor racing. Whether the youngster can live up to the praise he has received will probably become clear next season.
