A filmmaker with a soft spot for Ronnie Peterson, Gilles Villeneuve, Mika Hakkinen and above all, Tazio Nuvolari and Ayrton Senna, is also a diehard Formula One fan since the age of 4 (mid-90's). An avid researcher of the past of Grand Prix Racing since before it was even named F1, and with a thirst for knowledge of the ins and outs of the actuality of the sport, as well as for the technical aspects that define it, is a member of GPblog since 2023, where he has put his love of racing to good use.
Andrea Kimi Antonelli's not having the easiest of times in F1, and after coming back from the summer break reset, the Italian has seen his Dutch Grand Prix weekend go awry before it even truly began.
Not 15 minutes had gone by when the Italian driver found himself in trouble. Into the end of the second sector, on the double right-hander, the Mercedes rookie's session came to an end.
A rather awkward moment for Antonelli
Slowing down to make his way to the final corner before the straight that leads drivers into the beginning of the third and final sector, Antonelli found himself understeering.

As the car's speed reduced, the Italian couldn't steer his way out of danger, and Zandvoort, known for its unforgiving nature, spared Antonelli nothing. The Italian's car was beached, the red flag came out and the session came to a halt. It's since resumed, and you can review all the action in our liveblog here!
