Emotional Kimi Antonelli shares what it means to get his first podium ever in F1!

At just 18 years old, Kimi Antonelli is already making history in Formula 1. The Italian driver, thanks to a lightning-fast start and a tenacious defense against the two McLarens, managed to secure his very first career podium in the Canadian GP at Montreal. Mercedes has every reason to celebrate this huge achievement, especially alongside George Russell’s victory.

Commenting on what it felt like to achieve such an important result, Antonelli said: ''It was so stressful, but super happy, you know. I had a good start, I managed to jump into P3 and yeah, just stayed up there at the front''.

Finally, Antonelli added: ''Definitely this track has been good for us. The car has been incredible all weekend. And yeah, hopefully we can carry the same momentum into the next few races''.
