Antonelli: I didn't want to see the Bortoleto in the wall.
In Barcelona, Mercedes driver Kimi Antonelli said that he was not angry with Gabriel Bortoleto for saying words to him after the incident on the first lap of the Monaco Grand Prix.
Recall that as a result of the struggle between the two debutants of the championship, Bortoleto ended up in the wall and promised on the radio to send Kimi himself to the wall next time, and then said that he was misunderstood.
Kimi Antonelli: "We talked to him after the finish. Emotions run high during the race, so such words are possible. I even understand him. I experienced the same disappointment in Miami. Yes, I didn't end up in the wall, but I started from pole position, and then Oscar Piastri pushed me off the track. I was very upset, and it's very difficult to control my emotions at such moments.
I understand Bortoleto and I'm not mad at him. After he cooled down, we talked, and everything is fine between us."
Commenting on the events that led to the incident on the first lap, Kimi said: "We were both fighting hard, I saw an empty space and went to overtake. This is Monaco, and it's very easy to provoke a collision there.
Of course, I didn't want to see it in the wall, I had no such intentions. I gave him as much space as possible, and our cars didn't even touch. I intended to just overtake, not see into the wall."
