I’m a kart racer and I consider myself pretty fast. I’ve beaten a lot of people and I’m on par with a lot of fast people. But everyone in racing knows a handful of people that have somthing a little extra that’s special, you can beat them on a good day sure. But they have an extra sauce that seems almost unreachable. And given the right opportunities they could be champions in whatever they can race in. Kimi seems to have that to me and I’ve never seen him race, just the way he carries himself and how people talk about him I already know. Someone I know who comes to mind and have raced with, in the states is a kart racer named Colin Warren. He’s won many kart races, and when you see him in person it’s clear he’s on another level from everyone else there. He hasn’t had any big opportunities for funding come up but hopefully soon. Look up his record and you’ll see.
I’ve followed kimis f2 season. I really do not see the hype. If i compare if to russell and leclerc’s f2 campaign it is nowhere on that level. I expect george to beat him handily in 25’. We shall see.
@@tarikviaer-mcclymont5762 Ollie has scored points this F1 season, and Antonelli beat him by 38 points to finish out the F2 season. They obviously didn't have the fastest cars this season, but Antonelli maximized what he could out of the car and soundly beat his teammate by more than 30 points.
He isn't even named Kimi clearly trying to revive Kimi Raikkonen. He's named Andrea Kimi Antonelli and he has a really tough job to do at Mercedes. I wish him luck ,
I feel bad for this kid being fast tracked like this, even if he's talented having time to do develop is important. I wish he had time in a junior team. I hope he does great because the public will tear him apart if he doesn't.
The only people who I see having skepticism are the ones who have never seen a race from Kimi in any of the junior categories he's raced in or in karting, and base his entire talent level and potential on his position in the F2 standings and that one FP1 outing in Monza this year. The people who hype him, not overhype him, are those who have worked with him and have seen the data.
There’s a saying in motorsport that “ you can get someone to slow down and stop crashing, but you can’t make them fast”. Russel will have a problem next year.
Now George is gonna feel the pinch a bit,since Toto needs to prove that Kimi is the best choice to replace Lewis,he's gonna get a tad better assistance .
So you saying a rookie kimi was faster than Russell in silverstone , Russell who put two tenths on LH head & put it on pole in qualy this year at Silverstone . Wow Kimi must be the best rookie ever
@@internetuser1183 Yes, but they're only able to do that once they've matured as a driver. It's not something to be expected from a kid who had just turned 18 and who was driving the car for the very first time.
He could be another Stefan Bellof rather than another Max if he's that fearless. He actually even looks like Stefan Bellof in the thumbnail for this video
I hope he does well as it’s always nice to see the rookies have a good season. But I can’t help but think he is not going to live up to the hype. The Mercedes seems tricky to drive already, and he’s being thrown right into a top team who demand top results. That and as much as I hate him, George is performing very well atm
No doubt Antonelli is fast but i feel he has been rushed through the system.He really should have done f3 then f2 next year giving him time and aliitle more experience.He would only have been 20 by the time he hit the f1 grid.
@@ReggaeWise but the problem is that he didnt prove himself (really) in F2.. he came in with all the hype and finished 6th.

@dco1019 maybe he was distracted by his f1 duties and f1 future. I also hear he hasnt got a good car. Anyway if he is a real talent he will make it. One trade od talent is that they enter the major league young.
@@dco1019 6th in his rookie year in F2 isn't that bad when you consider that Kimi beat his teammate Ollie comprehensively, and keep in mind, Ollie was already about as good as Hulkenberg when they were both driving the Haas this year. F2 cars aren't equal, while many people think they are. If Kimi has already proven himself in private tests in F1 cars with Mercedes, then what does he need to prove in F2? What can be learned in F2 that can't be learned F1? Kimi has already proven that he can win in F2 by winning the sprint race in Silverstone in the wet, and the feature race on the Hungaroring in the dry. Kimi has proven in F2 that if his car is competitive and if he has a good strategy, he can win races. Don't forget that Kimi was has just turned 18, while the average of the F2 driver this season was 21.5 years, with the oldest being 24 years old. Kimi was holding his own against drivers who were years older than him, with many of the drivers being in their second or third season in F2. And once again, what CAN be learned in F2 that CAN'T be learned in F1?
@@Real_ghostboi They are all rookies or most of them in F2, so 6th isn't good for a top f1 prospect..and prema is a top team though with top people. Historically the team where the big talents get stashed...so you know, prema is one of those teams that actually would have one of those cars that is more 'equal' than most of others. Abt your other argument. The point of F2 as the last stepping stone to f1 is not only to learn it's to pool all the big talents together so we, and the teams, can see who's the best. It's a test case...I have no problem with mercedes rapidly promoting him though, perhaps they struck gold it's their business. Only it's clear that antonelli wasnt (yet?)on the level of hadjar and bortoletto for example..So to me, it's clear that Kimi has talent, it's just an uncharacteristic promotion only based on his karting and regional series.
🤣 quite brilliant snivels. You wouldn't believe me but my ability to speak extemporaneously is a function of having them earphones in, like Samson and his hair or summink
If they try to deploy this narrative, then they further cannot be trusted. Russell faster than Hamilton, who is on par almost with verstappen, now antonelli rookie faster than said russell, placing him nicely on par with aforementioned max
Let’s take some perspective here! Monza: Kimi went for a lap as if it was the last run in Q3…everyone else was warming into P1. Kim’s debut in F2 this season….underwhelming to say the least… Kimi will get his arse handed to him by GR in 2025. Don’t believe the hype! However, I hope I’m wrong, because we need someone to be able to take it to Max… as none of his bum chums on the current grid can
After 6 expensive, disappointing seasons in F1, Childish Russell does not deserve to be racing in F1. Next season Russell will continue to trash the Mercedes team unity and seriously damage Antonelli's future in F1.
That must be why he won Best Rookie that season. He only had 4 DNF and at least two were engine problems so basically NO, he did not crash loads on his rookie season. That's just the media regurgitating made up shait. Reality matters lol
If Redabull keep Perez, there’s no reason Mercedes couldn’t take 2nd in the Championship. Both Ferrari and McLaren have been just as much a miss as they have been a hit in the past 2 years.
What do you do when you lose a legend like Lewis Hamilton? You overplay the newcomer to the level of one who rivals Lewis Hamilton by comparing him to Max Verstappen. Mercedes as a brand is in trouble. They're not making as much profit as they would like from their road cars causing them to cut costs from discontinuing models to sharing platforms between models that didn't before. All this to say, Mercedes has suffered a loss in Lewis, and I wouldn't be surprised if they were doing everything to appease financial backers.
So someone post this guy F2 record isn't that great. That's interesting. So they think with a better car he'll be better. Cause Lewis crushed in F2 before he came to F1. So if he's not doing that,what's the deal?Just young?
Kimi did amazingly in karting and in every junior category he joined. His F2 season has been more difficult, but he's still among some of the best on the 2024 F2 grid. Kimi skipped F3, which is an important stepping stone before going to F2, and he's still managed to beat his teammate Ollie. Keep in mind, Ollie did partake in F3 and was in his second year of F2 this year, and beat Hulkenberg in qualifying in F1 this year. Kimi was also one of the very few F2 drivers who managed to win multiple F2 races this season. Kimi started his F2 season when he was just 17 years old, with the average age of all F2 drivers this year being 21.5 years old, with some of the oldest among them being 24 years old. Prema, the team Kimi has been racing for this year, had a tough season and wasn't that competitive this year. Prema was about as competitive as Mercedes was in F1 this year, and Prema were even worse than that at times. Kimi did a test in an F3 car earlier this year, and the engineers who worked with him all said that Kimi is the best guy they've seen in an F3 car since Max Verstappen himself. Keep in mind that guys like Leclerc, Piastri, and Russell all participated in F3 when they were about 19 years old. So, a 17-year-old Kimi was already better in an F3 car than 19-year-old Leclerc, Piastri, and Russell. All the engineers who have worked with him in karting and in the F4 series he's raced in have said that Kimi is the real deal and a special driver. James Allison, technical director of the Mercedes F1 team, said about Kimi's first test in an F1 car in the Mercedes W12 at the Red Bull Ring in Austria, that Kimi was mind-blowingly fast and that his lap times were metronomically consistent. He said that after Kimi's first 2 laps ever in an F1 car, you'd almost forget that it was his first time in an F1 car and that it looked like he had been driving F1 cars for ages.
I’m telling you.. this kid is gonna embarrass Russell. He’s gonna regret acting like he’s the next guy to “challenge” Max. Russell won’t even be able to beat Kimi…
This is a video about rumours. Let's provide a little fact: Kimi has won every racing category he has entered up until F2, in which he was in arguably the worst car on the grid and still scored double the points of his teammate Bearman! In his first FP1 session in the Mercedes at Monza, his sector 2 time was the quickest of the whole session before he crashed. Don't forget, Max Verstappen had a habit of crashing in his first season too, and many a team principal has said they'd rather have a quick driver who crashes occasionally, because he will mature out of the crashes once he understands the limit. Give Kimi some time. He will be Mega!
Please for one day remind the people about Lewis heroics as a rookie and how he was schooling elders like Alonso and co. Always you push everything to max. Lewis is more talented and a more complete driver than max. Even seb said Lewis massages the tire like no one.
@ Comedy gold. Ignore who beat who 2 out of 3 years 😂😂😂😂 So funny. George qualifies 18 out 24 races ahead of Lewis but no doubt because Lewis has more pubic hair on his ass he wins that as well 😂😂😂😂

James Allison, technical director of the Mercedes F1 team, said about Kimi's first test in an F1 car in the Mercedes W12 at the Red Bull Ring in Austria, that Kimi was mind-blowingly fast and that his lap times were metronomically consistent. He said that after Kimi's first 2 laps ever in an F1 car, you'd almost forget that it was his first time in an F1 car and that it looked like he had been driving F1 cars for ages.
The desperation in selfish egotistical Russell's eyes is plain and clear. Sadly, karma may visit, Russell😂😂
K Antonelli,just overrated!!
Lol
@@hugoboss917 He did great in F2??!!! lol...
@mari-us6rh in bad car, skipping f3, beating more experienced team mate. Slam dunk. Surely you know better than Wolf
@@hugoboss917 Of cos i'know better then Wolf!! If he knew better he would signed Max and not let RB have him!!
But time will tell..
It doesn't true that he has the metal to be
I’m telling you.. this kid is gonna embarrass Russell. He’s gonna regret acting like he’s the next guy to “challenge” Max. Russell won’t even be able to beat Kimi…
😂😂😂 he was poor in f2 consistently been p10 .
Clown
This is a video about rumours. Let's provide a little fact: Kimi has won every racing category he has entered up until F2, in which he was in arguably the worst car on the grid and still scored double the points of his teammate Bearman!
In his first FP1 session in the Mercedes at Monza, his sector 2 time was the quickest of the whole session before he crashed.
Don't forget, Max Verstappen had a habit of crashing in his first season too, and many a team principal has said they'd rather have a quick driver who crashes occasionally, because he will mature out of the crashes once he understands the limit. Give Kimi some time. He will be Mega!
I’m pretty sure Toto is negotiating a deal to swap Antonelli for Sainz.
Highly doubt that
The barber certainly got that lettuce tight, bro...👍
Now wait till he understands how to cut hair
I would love to see Antonelli beat Hamilton regularly next year.
Can't wait to see Kimi leave max in the dust! LFGOOOOOOOOOO
He'll leave George in the dust.
@@endthisnonsense7202 Or Lewis
Please for one day remind the people about Lewis heroics as a rookie and how he was schooling elders like Alonso and co. Always you push everything to max. Lewis is more talented and a more complete driver than max.
Even seb said Lewis massages the tire like no one.
@@nba_valentino44 nah
Cam its gonna look real bad when GR doesn’t have Lewis data to steal anymore and ends up w 0 wins 💀💀👍🏻👍🏻
This is the Russell who beat Lewis senseless 2 of the 3 years together 😂😂😂😂
@ u sure about that bud? The points say Lewis scored more over the three years 🤷🏻♂️
@ Comedy gold. Ignore who beat who 2 out of 3 years 😂😂😂😂 So funny. George qualifies 18 out 24 races ahead of Lewis but no doubt because Lewis has more pubic hair on his ass he wins that as well 😂😂😂😂
@ Lewis scored more points overall GR has never won anything meaningful 🤷🏻♂️ congrats
@ GR qualifies p3 to end up with Lewis who qualifies p18 🤷🏻♂️
