 | Kimi Antonelli: Mercedes has very good pace - and so do I22-05-2026 |
Antonelli is pleased with the performance in Melbourne. The Mercedes driver shared his opinion about second place at the Australian Grand Prix.
The car had a very good pace - and so did I. I had a very good first stint. Then, after switching to hard drive, I had problems quite quickly, but eventually I was able to get my speed back.
Of course, the start changed a lot. It was very tense because I had no power coming out of the last corner, so the car didn`t react to anything - and it was very tense. The start was very, very bad, I lost a lot of positions, which is why I had to fight my way forward.
But the car turned out to be very powerful. In the end it was a lot of fun and the team did a great job. I think this result was largely ensured by the amazing work of the mechanics after the third practice [when, after the accident, Mercedes managed to restore the car to qualifying]. A good end to the weekend – now let’s concentrate on China, ” Antonelli said.
Mercedes is accused of cheating and deceiving customers. Is it really true?
