Williams launched its 2025 car, and Andrea Kimi Antonelli drove the first kilometres in the 2025 Mercedes in Spain.
Preparation is needed, because although Antonelli may be the most mileage rookie ever (almost 30 races, with over 9,000 km according to his team principal), he has not looked convincing at all so far. During the private test, he used the 2020 Mercedes, the W11, with a camouflaged livery, and the fact that they have great faith in Antonelli is demonstrated by the fact that he could be the first rookie to race for the team since 2010.
The team considers him the future world champion, despite the fact that in his "debut", during the first free practice session of the Italian Grand Prix, he destroyed the Mercedes. Since then he has driven the current race car again in Mexico, and then also drove in Abu Dhabi.
Do you think the new Kimi will make his mark?
