Kimi Antonelli finished third at the 2026 F1 Mexico City Grand Prix, and that was enough to make him Formula 1 world champion with four races to spare. He is the youngest ever champion and the first Italian to win the title in 73 years.
It should have been Ferrari’s day. Lewis Hamilton took his first pole for the team, then Charles Leclerc ran wide at turn four on lap one, kept the place, and Max Verstappen slipped through to win. Leclerc’s five-second penalty didn’t undo the damage, and the lost points cost Hamilton second in the championship.
Haas stood Esteban Ocon down mid-weekend, and rookie Ryo Hirakawa scored on debut after both Alpines lost their points. What actually happened inside Haas is still unknown.
Di also takes a closer look at Formula 1’s first social impact report.
In this episode:
- Verstappen and Hamilton lift the new champion onto their shoulders
- Kimi Antonelli’s records: youngest pole sitter, first four wins back to back, Monza from 19th
- First two seasons compared: Hamilton, Antonelli, Verstappen and Sebastian Vettel
- Haas drops Esteban Ocon after a practice disagreement; Ryo Hirakawa scores on debut
- Valtteri Bottas walks away from a suspension failure; Aston Martin’s double retirement

- Fred Vasseur blames both drivers; Ciara puts it on Leclerc
- Oscar Piastri out in Q2, then a penalty drops him to 13th
- Toto Wolff on how Antonelli turned Mercedes into a team of huggers
- Formula 1’s first social impact report, and why the scholarship sum falls short

Kimi Antonelli è arrivato terzo al Gran Premio di Città del Messico 2026: un risultato sufficiente per laurearsi campione del mondo di Formula 1 con quattro gare d’anticipo. È il più giovane campione di sempre e il primo italiano a conquistare il titolo in 73 anni.
Doveva essere il giorno della Ferrari. Lewis Hamilton ha conquistato la sua prima pole position con la scuderia, poi Charles Leclerc è finito largo alla curva 4 nel corso del primo giro, ha mantenuto la posizione e Max Verstappen ne ha approfittato per vincere. La penalità di cinque secondi inflitta a Leclerc non ha rimediato al danno e i punti persi sono costati a Hamilton il secondo posto in campionato.
La Haas ha messo Esteban Ocon da parte a weekend in corso e il debuttante Ryo Hirakawa ha conquistato punti al suo esordio, dopo che entrambe le Alpine sono rimaste a secco. Non è ancora chiaro cosa sia successo davvero in casa Haas.
