OFICIAL | Andrea Kimi Antonelli nuevo piloto de Mercedes para 2025
De Sergio Álvarez 31/08/2024 - 09:57


La temporada 2025 tendrá un nuevo rookie en la parrilla tras la ultima confirmación que hemos tenido este sábado. Pese a que todo el mundo ya lo daba por hecho, tras la llegada de Carlos Sainz a Williams, el equipo Mercedes lo ha hecho oficial. En un comunicado enviado a los medios, la marca alemana ha confirmado que Andrea Kimi Antonelli será su piloto en 2025 formando supla con el británico George Russell.

Pese a no ser un aspirante claro en F2 por el titulo, su gran rendimiento como rookie en la categoría ha hecho que Antonelli tenga la oportunidad de su vida para ser piloto oficial de Mercedes en 2025. Con todo esto, Toto Wolff ha hablado sobre el porque se han decantado por el italiano para que sea el compañero de George Russell durante la próxima temporada.

Kimi Antonelli: "It's not possible to replace Lewis Hamilton. He's such a great figure in the sport of today, and he has achieved so much in his career, so I don't want to be seen as his replacement. I'm just the next driver for Mercedes in '25".

Toto Wolff says he decided "five minutes" after Lewis Hamilton told him he was quitting for Ferrari that he wanted Andrea Kimi Antonelli to replace him - despite keeping door open for Max Verstappen.



Wolff decided on Antonelli "five minutes after" Hamilton's Ferrari move

Mercedes team boss Wolff says Antonelli was his first option in January to replace Lewis Hamilton

Filip Cleeren Aug 31, 2024, 12:16 PM

Mercedes Formula 1 chief Toto Wolff says he decided Andrea Kimi Antonelli would be Lewis Hamilton's successor "five minutes after" he learned of the Briton's Ferrari move.

On Saturday, Mercedes finally announced that 18-year-old Antonelli will be promoted to a race seat next year alongside George Russell as Hamilton's replacement.

The announcement brings a close to months of speculation over Mercedes's final decision, with Wolff fast-tracking junior talent Antonelli through private F1 testing while simultaneously sounding out Max Verstappen in case the Dutchman became available.

But as the window to pry the world champion away from Red Bull has since closed, Mercedes has now officially announced Antonelli, with the Italian long considered to be a shoo-in for the seat.

When asked when he made up his mind over his preferred option to replace Hamilton, Wolff said he immediately decided on Antonelli once Hamilton informed him of his Ferrari move in January.

"I made up my mind five minutes after Lewis Hamilton told me that he's going to Ferrari," Wolff said.

"Obviously, we were discussing other options, and also kept the Max idea. We didn't discount it completely with looking at what happened at Red Bull, but instinctively, that is the line-up with these two that I always wanted.

"Bearing in mind the fast-tracking that we did with Kimi and everything related there too, but that was immediately what I wanted to do."

Wolff said Saturday's announcement means that Mercedes has now settled on Russell and Antonelli as its driver line-up for the foreseeable future, although Mercedes has been vague about the Italian's contractual terms.

"These two are the future," Wolff said. "They have been and will be Mercedes drivers, and therefore we have contracts with George and Kimi that go much longer, that are very complicated in terms of options, etc.

"This is a pressure cooker, but this is where we stand as a team today, we want to go with these two. The most important thing is to see how George and Kimi settle in and I see no reason at that stage not giving them the faith and the trust of going forward.

"What that means for the terms is something that we will discuss between ourselves, but we wouldn't have gone for the line-up with these two if we wouldn't believe 100% that they are the best choice for Mercedes."

That also means that any Verstappen talk can be put on ice, and Wolff vowed that he would not be entertaining second thoughts if the Dutchman became available next year.

"So, what I appreciate also in dealing with them is just very straightforward, and I don't flirt outside," he added.

"I got nearly caught out by the Lewis situation, but I have not entertained any discussions with any drivers when giving it all from the team to make it a success.

"And this is why all of our focus in the team is on George and Kimi. There's no discussion, there are no second thoughts about what we're doing in 2026 because now it's about 2024 and 2025.

"And if flirting outside happens, then these guys will know it at the same time when we have those discussions."

Pues ya es oficial, Aston Martin presenta a Adrian Newey como parte del equipo desde el 1 de marzo de 2025.



Adrian Newey begins new chapter with Aston Martin Aramco Formula One Team






F1's team of the future secures the sport's most sought-after signature which marks the beginning of a milestone long-term partnership.

Adrian Newey has committed his long-term future to the Aston Martin Aramco Formula One Team. The acclaimed British designer will begin working at the team's Silverstone HQ from 1 March 2025 taking up a new role as Managing Technical Partner.

The appointment of Adrian Newey is yet another statement of Aston Martin Aramco's Formula One ambitions. Adrian has an unmatched record of success: he has led F1 teams to 25 Formula One world titles, establishing his position as the greatest technical mind in the sport's history.

Ready for something new in Formula One, Adrian sees Aston Martin Aramco as the ideal project to apply his guidance and creativity. A private tour of the team's brand-new AMR Technology Campus in June – a tangible demonstration of the team's limitless ambition – proved a decisive factor in the decision-making process.

There is plenty to exercise Adrian's mind in this new role: a reset in the technical rules for 2026, the integration of Honda works power units, advanced fuels by Aramco, and the newest wind tunnel in the sport.

Lawrence Stroll, Executive Chairman, Aston Martin Aramco Formula One Team, said:

"This is huge news. Adrian is the best in the world at what he does – he is at the top of his game – and I am incredibly proud that he is joining the Aston Martin Aramco Formula One Team. It's the biggest story since the Aston Martin name returned to the sport and another demonstration of our ambition to build a Formula One team capable of fighting for world championships.

"As soon as Adrian became available, we knew we had to make it happen. Our initial conversations confirmed that there was a shared desire to collaborate in a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

"Adrian is a racer and one of the most competitive people I have ever met. When he saw what we have built at Silverstone – our incredible AMR Technology Campus, the talented group of people we have assembled and the latest wind tunnel in the sport – he quickly understood what we are trying to achieve. We mean business – and so does he.

"Adrian shares our hunger and ambition, he believes in this project, and he will help us write the next chapter in Aston Martin Aramco's Formula One story."

Adrian Newey said:

"I am thrilled to be joining the Aston Martin Aramco Formula One Team. I have been hugely inspired and impressed by the passion and commitment that Lawrence brings to everything he is involved with.

"Lawrence is determined to create a world-beating team. He is the only majority team owner who is actively engaged in the sport. His commitment is demonstrated in the development of the new AMR Technology Campus and wind tunnel at Silverstone, which are not only state of the art but have a layout that creates a great environment to work in.

"Together with great partners like Honda and Aramco, they have all the key pieces of infrastructure needed to make Aston Martin a world championship-winning team and I am very much looking forward to helping reach that goal."
