Motorsport: Antonelli can make F1 history in Mexico this weekend

# Motorsport: Mercedes’ driver, Kimi Antonelli, is on the brink of Formula One history in this weekend’s Grand Prix in Mexico City. He only needs to finish ninth to clinch the drivers’ championship and become Italy’s first champion since 1953. Antonelli increased his lead over British teammate George Russell to 123 points when he won last weekend’s US race in Texas. If he wins this Sunday, he will take the title at the age of 20-years and 68-days, bettering German driver Sebastian Vettel’s record by more than three years.
