Kimi Antonelli becomes youngest champion in F1 history! Third-place finish at Mexico Grand Prix secures title triumph for 20-year-old superstar in race won by Max Verstappen

Sobs and tears and you could hardly believe it. ‘Champion of the World,’ Kimi Antonelli was told over the Mercedes radio by his race engineer Peter Bonnington. And the crying and bawling started. For once the tension, he admitted, had got to him this weekend. That is how Antonelli felt going into this Mexico City Grand Prix, an incident-laden one, a controversial one, but one from which he emerged emotional as the youngest winner of the Formula One title in history, at 20 years and 68 days.
