Adnkronos (Adnkronos) – Formula 1 returns with the Mexican Grand Prix. Today, Sunday, November 1st, the circus stops in Mexico City, where Lewis Hamilton will start from pole position. Kimi Antonelli, who will start fourth, is one step away from clinching the Formula 1 World Championship at just 20 years old, with four races to go: he currently leads the championship standings with 365 points, 123 points ahead of teammate George Russell and 124 points ahead of Ferrari driver Lewis Hamilton.
To celebrate tonight (the GP will be visible on TV and streaming, including free-to-air), a ninth place will be enough, but the Bolognese driver could become champion even without scoring points, if Russell and Hamilton fail to win.
