He called the remaining events a chance both to close the year on a high and to begin 2027 work.
He has already framed a photograph of the title moment and intends to hang it on the wall.
"It's a good opportunity for me to, first of all, you know, try to finish the season on a top, but I also feel like that my 2027 preparation starts now,"Antonelli said."It's going to be important to finish the season well, strong, in order to have the confidence and also to be able to get the confidence ahead of 2027,"he said.
"I already framed the picture and definitely will put it on the wall because it's such a moment,"Antonelli said. Speaking on media day at the track, Antonelli said a strong finish would matter for confidence heading into next year."So definitely, I would have liked a bit more time to just sit down and like reflect and realise what happened,"he said.
