Antonelli vows to ‘keep levelling up’ in title fight

Kimi Antonelli has secured four consecutive victories, establishing a commanding lead in the 2026 Drivers’ Championship with a 43-point gap over teammate George Russell. Despite his success, the young Italian remains focused on a race-by-race approach, insisting that he cannot afford to relax as the season progresses. Antonelli reflected on his intense battle with Russell during the Montreal race, noting that the tight competition was challenging but highly entertaining for the fans. While Mercedes currently leads the pack, Antonelli remains cautious, pointing out that variable track conditions made the weekend difficult to judge and suggesting that a clearer picture of their car's performance will emerge in the upcoming European rounds.
