Kimi Antonelli: I'm glad I secured pole position again!

      Kimi Antonelli has secured his third consecutive pole position on three very different tracks, and this can no longer be explained simply by luck. Such results increasingly convincingly confirm the correctness of Mercedes management's decision to bet on the young Italian driver. By the way, a year ago he also won his first pole in Formula 1 right here in Miami during the sprint qualifying.

      Kimi Antonelli (1st): "It’s a wonderful day, and I’m happy to have secured pole again! The day didn’t start off well, as the sprint didn’t go as we wanted, but I’m very pleased that we managed to make a comeback. The qualifying went well, although during the final attempt I was a bit nervous, but my first fast lap was good enough, so I’m very satisfied.

      I must admit that the stress was quite intense, you know? I was just waiting for everyone to finish their attempts, but as I said, I’m very happy that the time set in the first attempt was good enough.

      I hope to have a good start tomorrow, and it would be great if everything goes smoothly without losing positions. But we will do our best, try to focus, and fight for the best possible result."
