IndyCar winner James Hinchcliffe rates Kimi Antonelli's F1 start with his quarterly report card


Kimi Antonelli is still just 18 years old, and could still be in school. Instead, he’s mixing it with the big names of Grand Prix racing – and already impressing with his speed and composure on track. But just how good has he been since making the step up to Formula 1? Given his tender years, we asked IndyCar star and F1 TV pundit James Hinchcliffe to assess his progress with a quarterly report card on his first season in motor racing’s top tier.
After six races and two Sprints, Antonelli finds himself sitting sixth in the Drivers’ World Championship, a mere five points off Ferrari front man Charles Leclerc and seven points ahead of Lewis Hamilton, the man he replaced at Mercedes.
