ANDREA KIMI ANTONELLI

Andrea Kimi Antonelli – Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Driver

Andrea Kimi Antonelli’s rise to the Formula 1 grid has been nothing short of meteoric. The Bologna-born prodigy, son of sportscar racer Marco Antonelli, was quickly scouted by Mercedes after an extraordinary karting career filled with countless championship victories and trophies.

At just 15 years old, Antonelli made his car racing debut and immediately proved his talent, capturing multiple titles in both the Italian and ADAC F4 Championships (2022), followed by dominant performances in the Formula Regional Middle East and European Championships (2023).

Now, as part of the Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team, Antonelli represents the next generation of racing excellence — combining raw speed, precision, and relentless ambition.
