Toto Wolff: We have to restrain our interest in Kimi.

      The main problem Kimi Antonelli faces, according to Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff, is the excessive attention to his persona…

      Toto Wolff: “Antonelli is currently enjoying huge popularity with the public, especially in Italy. We have to manage this. There are many requests from the media and sponsors wanting to get his time, and our task is to slow down this process. After all, he is still very young.

      I don’t think any of us expected such a series from him. The car is very good, the engine is in order. But the way he consistently extracts the maximum from it is truly impressive.

      The race in Miami turned out to be interesting. In preparing for this weekend, we knew that our rivals would bring serious updates. We understood that we would likely be a bit behind and that we would have to fight hard for the victory. This weekend was not easy for us, but we made several correct strategic decisions, and that helped Kimi secure the win.”
