Antonelli celebrates Norris's mistake in Madrid
El italiano saca tajada del error de cálculo de McLaren para convertirse en el primer ganador de la historia del Madring
The return of Formula 1 to Madrid after 45 years was marked by a significant influence from the 562-meter-long pit lane. The first free practice session on Friday showed a high level of tire degradation, prompting Mercedes' director Toto Wolff to joke about a six-stop strategy. However, as the weekend progressed, the combination of car performance and a 26-second speed limit in the pit lane led to a conservative strategy.
This ultimately propelled Kimi Antonelli to the top of the podium, making him the first winner in the circuit's history.
