F1 commentator Alex Jacques is unsure whether Toto Wolff will opt for Mercedes wonderkid Andrea Kimi Antonelli as a replacement for 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton in 2025.

Mercedes haveꦇ a big decision to make after Hamilton decided to switch to Ferrari from next season.

A number of options are available to Mercedes, including 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Fernando Alonso, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Carlos Sainz, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Alex Albon and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Esteban Ocon.

Their junior driver, Kimi Antonelli, is set to drive in FI🅺A Formu🐟la 2 with Prema this season.

The young Italian has been mooted as a potential option if Mercedes want to go “bold” as they look for their own 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen.

Jacques, who also commentates on F2, doubts Wolff will put Antonelli straight🐻 into a t🌌op team.

“Antonelli would have to completely dominate the championship to have a chance of st🅠arting the 2025 season in that Mercedes team,” Jacques told the Feeder Ser🅷ies Podcast.

“I just don’t see Wolff putting someone, no matter ꦉhow good they🅘 are, in that situation.”

If Antonelli does succeed in F2, a couple of years at Williams could🌄 be a possibility.

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:George Russell spent three years at Grove before making the move up as a replacement for 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Valtteri Bottas.

“[Wolff] does not strike me as a team principal who would take that sort of risk, and no matter how talented 💖a driver is, it is easier to do a [Charles] Leclerc in a Sauber, a Russell in a Williams,” he added.

“Whether it be a World C𒊎hampion, a race winner, or a hotshot talent. You need something to lift that team.

“That’s eith🔯er going to have to be a massive name of huge calibre or a mega talent, but I still don’t see Antonelli starting [the season🍸 with Mercedes].”
