Kimi Antonelli causes chaos in Amelia Dimoldenberg's "Passenger Princess"

Kimi Antonelli caused a stir during Amelia Dimoldenberg's Passenger Princess YouTube series, which sees current Formula 1 drivers teach the series' host the art of driving. The 20-year-old Italian driver's first lesson saw him warm up the tires by switching directions quickly, much to Dimoldenberg's frustration.

"I knew you were young, but I didn't know you would be this immature," the comedian exclaimed. In response, Antonelli admitted, "You would slide a lot more" if he had attempted doughnuts.

When the roles reversed, Dimoldenberg took the wheel, and Antonelli offered coaching. He evaluated her doughnut attempt, giving it a 5.5 out of 10. Amid the comedic banter, Antonelli shared personal details about his go-karting career, pre-race rituals, and hobbies. The video has garnered over one million views and 31,000 likes since its release.
