Mercedes’ resurgence continues, as the Silver Arrows claimed victory in the third race of the season.
Kimi Antonelli produced a stunning opportunistic drive to win the Japanese Grand Prix on Sunday, capitalising on a mid-race safety car triggered by a frightening high-speed crash to secure his second consecutive victory.
The 19-year-old Mercedes driver started from pole position, his second in as many races, but suffered a disastrous launch with wheelspin, dropping from first to sixth as McLaren’s Oscar Piastri took an early lead ahead of George Russell and the Ferrari pair of Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton.
How Antonelli won at Suzuka
Piastri looked firmly in control through the opening stint, but the race was turned completely upside down on lap 22 of 53.

Haas rookie Ollie Bearman was involved in a heavy collision at the Spoon Curve after contact with Alpine’s Franco Colapinto. Bearman’s car slammed into the barriers with a reported 50G impact, forcing his retirement and sending him to the medical centre with a bruised right knee.
Lance Stroll (Aston Martin) was also a retirement, pulling off with a water leak. The safety car was deployed at the perfect moment for those who had yet to pit.
Piastri, Russell, Leclerc and Lando Norris had all already stopped, while Antonelli (running fourth) and Hamilton remained out.
