Williams asks FIA for special dispensation for Antonelli
Williams has asked the FIA to provide special dispensation to allow Mercedes junior driver Andrea Kimi Antonelli to race before he turns 18. Antonelli’s junior championship victories have ensured he has earned the required 40 points to qualify for a Super License, but the regulations also state that a driver must be 18 years old to race in Formula 1. The Italian is in his rookie Formula 2 season, but after two impressive F1 tests – the first in the 2021 Mercedes at Red Bull Ring, and the second in the 2022 W13 at Imola – interest has increased around a potential step up to F1.
