Kimi Antonelli, the 20-year-old Formula 1 driver, is dealing with a viral illness ahead of the Mexico Grand Prix this weekend, where he could become the youngest champion in the sport's history.
The Italian driver, who was photographed in the pit lane during the Italian Grand Prix on September 6, 2026, enters the race with a chance to clinch the title. His health status is being monitored by his team.
If Antonelli secures the championship at the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez, he would break the record for the youngest Formula 1 world champion.
