Antonelli wins US Grand Prix, tightens his grip on F1 title chase
Kimi Antonelli stormed to an easy ninth win of the season at the United States Grand Prix and further tightened his grip on a Formula 1 season championship that he could win at the next race in Mexico City. The Mercedes driver started from pole position at the Circuit of the Americas with an outside chance of winning the season championship outright with a victory combined with poor results from his closest rivals.
Lewis Hamilton finished fourth and George Russell was eighth to extend the chase another week. At 20 years old, Antonelli is trying to become the youngest champion in F1 history. He needs to finish only ninth or higher in Mexico City to clinch the championship.
