"I'll bombard myself with melatonin": Kimi Antonelli admits to driving "tense" and "tired" on cusp of F1 title

Kimi Antonelli is hoping to overcome an off-colour Mexico City Grand Prix qualifying session with a good night's rest, but admits Formula 1 title nerves have led to him driving with unwanted tension.

The Italian was just 0.001s slower than Lando Norris' FP3 headliner earlier in the day, but in qualifying had been half a step behind Mercedes team-mate George Russell and unable to find the right confidence throughout the session.
