Kimi Antonelli shocks Mercedes as Max Verstappen wrestles Red Bull ‘kangaroo’
Kimi Antonelli shocked Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff by claiming pole position for the United States Grand Prix, putting him in the perfect position to try and become world champion at the Circuit of the Americas on Sunday.
Antonelli must win in Austin to become world champion, with Lewis Hamilton to finish fifth or lower and George Russell in ninth or lower. Hamilton starts in fifth, with Russell in sixth. Concerningly for Antonelli, it is Max Verstappen who joins him on the front row after fighting a bouncing Red Bull!
