Teenager Antonelli in pole position to replace Hamilton

China Daily  

Italian 17-year-old Andrea Kimi Antonelli is being lined up by Mercedes to replace Lewis Hamilton, who will join Ferrari. Mercedes Formula 1 team principal Toto Wolff has given his strongest indication yet that his team intends to replace Lewis Hamilton with rookie Andrea Kimi Antonelli for 2025. The Italian has been part of Mercedes' junior driver program since 2019 after impressing in karting, and speaking exclusively to Xinhua during the Japanese Grand Prix weekend, Wolff talked up Antonelli's potential. "He's definitely a very strong contender," Wolff said of Antonelli's chances of taking Hamilton's seat. "My feeling at the moment is that I don't want to rush, because Kimi is part of the ideas for next year and is very much in the strongest position, and that's why we don't need to rush into any other decision," said Wolff.
