At only 20 years old, and even before the end of his second season in Formula 1, the Italian driver is already on the edge of the top 5 of the most successful active drivers. Kimi Antonelli was crowned Formula 1 world champion at just 20 years old after an impressive second season in the sport.
He postponed the coronation of his younger brother by a week by the narrowest of margins, placing eighth in Austin while a result beyond ninth place was synonymous with the title.
A precocity which is all the more striking as the driver has shown great maturity throughout the season.
A resounding title for a driver who, throughout the season, broke records for youth and precocity that could become landmarks.
The Italian was crowned world champion at just 20 years old after an impressive second season in the discipline.
Going a little further back, three years before winning his title, in the fall of 2023, the native of Bologna dominated the FRECA championship, the fourth rung of the pyramid towards F1.
From his debut in single-seaters to a start in F1, it only took him three and a half years, becoming the third youngest driver in history to start a Grand Prix (18 years, 6 months, 19 days).
