Antonelli: I want to write my own chapter in the history of Formula 1

      Kimi Antonelli is considered one of the most talented drivers of his generation, which allowed him to achieve a lot of success in karting and in Formula 4. In F3 he did not act at all, immediately moved to Formula 2, but last season the team Prema was not in the best shape, so Antonelli won only a couple of victories and finished the year in 6th place in the personal standings. This did not prevent Mercedes to sign a contract with the 18-year-old Italian, which was clearly risky, as he has very little experience. Now to Kimi attracted serious attention, because he took the place of Lewis Hamilton in the team: everyone wonders how he will cope with the most difficult tasks, which he will have to solve in the debut season? However, Antonelli is not satisfied when they say that he was taken in the team to replace Hamilton: "When they say that I replaced him, I do not think it is correct. He has achieved a lot in our sport, and I just believe that I became the next Mercedes driver, and I want to write my chapter in the history of Formula 1. Speaking for Mercedes - of course, a great responsibility, because it is clear that this is a top team. On the other hand, it is also a great opportunity. Speak for her - a real privilege, and I just try to maximize this opportunity to use". Kimi Antonelli - one of six drivers who will have their first full season in Formula 1, but to pilot a really fast and competitive car will be only he and the new driver Red Bull Racing Liam Lawson.
