60 minutes until the start: Commentary by Kimi Antonelli

      Kimi Antonelli will start fourth in Baku and hopes to fight for a podium…

      Kimi Antonelli: “Qualifying was tough. I won't hide the fact that I ran the first session quite poorly — with five minutes to go I didn't have time for a flying lap. I felt the pressure, but I managed to deal with it and put a lap together.

      The second session went without any major problems, and I began the final confident in my abilities, but the session was constantly interrupted by red flags. It wasn't easy to get the tyres into the working window and string a lap together. Nevertheless, I managed to post the fourth-fastest time, and today I'll do everything I can.

      The wind today will be, in a sense, a lottery, because its gusts come from different directions and are unpredictable, but everyone is on equal terms. It's important not to make mistakes today.”
