Lewis Hamilton praises Kimi Antonelli's historic F1 title: "So well deserved"

Lewis Hamilton has sent his warm congratulations to the newly crowned Formula 1 world champion, Kimi Antonelli, while reviewing his own performance and internal team challenges at the 2026 Mexico Grand Prix.

The British driver secured a strong second-place finish at the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez after he secured pole position in qualifying. However, the dominant talking point coming out of the Ferrari garage after the race was not just the podium finish, but the wheel-to-wheel battle Hamilton had with teammate Charles Leclerc.
