168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Kimi Antonelli says he did not expect his stunning F1 pole position fo𝔍r the sprint race at the🃏 Miami Grand Prix.

The 18-year-old Italian rookie, who was signed as seven-time world champion168澳洲5最新开奖结果: Lewis Hamilton's replacement at Mercedes, became the youngest driver to take✱ an F1 pole position in Miami.

Antonelli produced an outstanding lap to outpace the McLaren pair of 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Oscar Piastri and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lando Norris 🅰by a narrow margin and secure his place at the very front of the grid for Saturday’s shorter sprint race.

"I di🍃d not see that coming. I felt the lap was good anꦓd I was happy with it,” Antonelli told Sky Sports F1.

"There were still a few bits I could have done better but I was super happy with how I put all the sectors togetherꦦ. I will enjoy this moment but focus on tomorrow because it would be good to repeat that result.

"McLaren, Ferra🌳ri and Red Bull have strong race pace but we are pretty close. It will be important to have a good start, then set a good pace without degrading [the tyres] too much."

It marked the first time this season that Antonelli has beaten Mercedes teammate 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:George Russell in qualifying.

Russell ended up fifth, 0.309s behind Antonelli af꧟ter completing his sole SQ3 lap earlier than his rival𒈔s.

"Every weekend I learn massively,” Antonelli added. “Last week, having a break really helped me to gather information and process it all🐬 and recharging the batteries, it was rea🅷lly good.

"The whole qualifying I felt I was able to make a step lap by lap. I'm much more aware of how to do a consistent warm up and extract more out of the tyres but th൩ere's a lot to improve.

"Every weekend I get more confident with the car, can play with it more and explore the limits. At the same time, I can understand more from the set-up and give 🎉much better feedback which allows the team to improve the car.”
