Kimi Antonelli says he is just getting started as the 20-year-old Italian prepares to become Formula One’s youngest world champion with a flourish in Mexico City this weekend.

The Mercedes driver, in only his second season, has a 123-point lead over teammate George Russell, his closest rival, with a maximum 100 still available after Mexico.

Two points on Sunday —?a ninth-place finish —?is all he needs to become Italy’s first champion in 73 years even if Russell wins the race.
