Kimi Antonelli Hilariously Responds to Kim Kardashian Monaco GP Towel Incident
Antonelli and Mercedes posted a playful search after Kardashian was filmed using his winner’s podium towel, and the clip drew millions of views.
- On June 7, 2026, nineteen-year-old Kimi Antonelli won the Monaco Grand Prix, becoming the youngest-ever winner of the prestigious race. A viral post-race incident involving Kim Kardashian soon overshadowed his historic achievement.
- Lewis Hamilton sprayed champagne toward Kardashian's enclosure after the race, triggering the bizarre sequence. Kardashian used Antonelli's official winner's towel to clean the sticky residue from her face and hair.

- The viral towel row has amassed millions of views, with motorsport purists criticizing the incident as a breach of paddock etiquette. Critics argue Kardashian's behavior contrasts sharply with the professional traditions of the Monaco Grand Prix.
