Andrea Kimi Antonelli won the Canadian Grand Prix and has dealt a brutal blow to the Formula 1 World Cup. Because he already has four wins in a row (all of his life). Because the four of them have everything, from the ‘luck’ of champions to a devilish pace. And fundamentally because of a difference that already reaches 43 points in their favor. George Russell remains second in the championship, but the abandonment after the ‘blackout’ of his mercedes It leaves him very touched. There is still a lot to compete, but in F1 the value of a driver is worth what you do in your last race.
Antonelli greets the fans.
and with Antonelli It is not worth cheating in the diagnosis. It must be said clearly. It smells like a champion, it smells like a historic driver. He has the pace, the ability to improve on the weekends and that fire has already entered within him that reminds us of other historical midfielders. Perhaps the closest is Max Verstappen and this Kimi it’s a tracing from the first version of Dutch. Volcanic, yes. Maybe past the turn. But extraordinarily good and will break into something bigger if he manages to win the crown.
The crack
Magnificent Kimi
Antonelli won in Canada putting terrible pressure on Russel and seeing himself benefiting from the breakage of his partner. “I don’t like winning like that,” he said on the radio as he crossed the finish line. He is modest (and he must be to maintain a low profile in the boxing). Mercedes)but the reality is that of a driver who already competes as a champion. He knows how to attack, he knows how to protest when he has to and he knows what it takes to win.
I don’t like winning like that
And it is easy to understand it. He has the ability to evolve on the court, his ability multiplies under pressure and he has already broken into winning like the greatest do. Without leaving anything to anyone, widening a difference that is increasingly greater. Yes, it is the jewel of F1. But perhaps it is time to affirm that he is the top favorite to be world champion.

Alonso: magic, yes; car, no
Fernando Alonso He did not make it through lap 30 of the race. A few turns before he had to remove the AMR26 after a problem in his cockpit – with the seat, specifically -. But the Asturian showed that his magic is still intact and that it does not depend on the car he rides. That was a constant sight since Friday. He ended it on a wall after blocking the front axle of the AMR26, but he had snuck the Aston Martin into a place it didn’t deserve. He also performed in qualifying. And in the race he appeared again where he didn’t belong.
Alonso gets into the Aston Martin.
In the Grand Prix, Alonso He had a great start, placed 10th in the first turns and showed that intuition never disappears from the pilot of Oviedo. But the prize did not exist and the race had the outcome that many could imagine: abandonment. The best thing is that perhaps it was not a reliability issue and the car has evolved in the midst of its delicate start to the season.
to cover up
A dramatic race
He Canadian Grand Prix It was beautiful for its variations, messes and problems between the main actors. But it also had that drama that is expected from the first appointments with the new regulations. The breaks and problems existed; and they fundamentally affected two favorites for the title. George Russell and Lando Norris abandoned due to mechanical problems (battery and transmission, respectively) and their World can be compromised when leaving the Gilles Villeneuve.
Race start.
That feeling was also experienced in the best phase of the race, which marked the lavish battle between Antonelli and Russel. With flat tires on both drivers, no gaps, desperate attempts… and the British crash as an unfortunate culmination for their interests. If this is the tone of the World It is great news. Be careful, we can entertain ourselves.
The player
Immense Sainz
Carlos Sainz He added another two points with a car placed by the best estimates… as 12th in the table. The man from Madrid, by speech and his own way of being, is not a driver who tends to exaggerate in his statements, nor does he like to give too much importance to his performances even though they do deserve it. But on this occasion we must value it: his work is monumental. And his work continues to bear fruit that no one can imagine.
Sainz, in Canada.
Sainz puts Williams in a place that does not belong, he performs in totally extreme contexts and knows how to do what other pilots cannot. He is the clear leader of the structure of Grove and he is a team driver fighting for the world title. A ninth like this is worth more than many podiums of several of its rivals.
