The year 2021 marked a pivotal moment in the career of Kimi Antonelli. At the tender age of just fifteen, he made his debut in the Formula 4 championship mid-season at the Red Bull Ring. From his very first race, he immediately demonstrated his potential by scoring points. In that same race, a young Ollie Bearman secured a victory, which would bring him closer to claiming the title.
Antonelli, however, quickly continued to make his mark. Just two weekends later, on the legendary Monza track, he achieved his first podium finish, showcasing extraordinary talent and promising a bright future in motorsport.
