Antonelli putting championship to the back of his mind after best day of his life
- On Thursday, Mercedes driver Andrea Kimi Antonelli stated he is pushing championship title thoughts to the back of his mind ahead of this weekend's Spanish Grand Prix in Madrid, focusing strictly on driving.
- Last Sunday's Italian Grand Prix win at Monza, where the 20-year-old climbed from 19th on the grid, remains the "best day of my life, so far," he reiterated to reporters.
- To manage the pressure of his success, Antonelli said a team go-karting session after Monza helped him reset; he declared he wants to avoid worrying about the championship "at all costs."
- George Russell, the Mercedes teammate, admitted on Thursday he will need luck to catch the runaway series leader; Antonelli currently holds a commanding 66-point advantage.
- With 10 races remaining this season, the 20-year-old remains on track to become Formula One's youngest-ever world champion, holding significant leads over rivals Ferrari driver Lewis Hamilton and Lando Norris.
