Wolff takes pressure off Antonelli: 'We warn them beforehand'

For the 2025 season, Mercedes have promoted Andrea Kimi Antonelli to replace Lewis Hamilton. It will the first time that a junior of the German team graduated immediately to their car. However, the Italian is not a ‘normal’ rookie, as the 18-year-old is predicted to have a great future ahead of him in F1 as a ‘prodigy’. Still, Toto Wolff would prefer if miracles are not expected immediately from his driver.
