George Russell's future look shaky...but could Mercedes send Kimi Antonelli off to Alpine and make room for Max Verstappen?Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsRumours have, of course, been heating up about a blockbuster Mercedes strategy for 2026. However, I wish to suppose something different. Not much talk has focused on Kimi Antonelli. Should Toto Wolff keep Russell to partner Verstappen - should the deal be done - Alpine might be the Italian's home whilst he continues to develop. In this video, I wish to discuss this less talked situation, what it means for the team’s championship ambitions and why Kimi could offer more to the new Merc customers than his older colleague Valtteri Bottas could. We also explain why Antonelli’s rookie achievements and in-depth knowledge of the 2025 Mercedes could give Alpine a huge advantage just as they switch to Mercedes power units...and could make things even more cost effective!#f1 #maxverstappen #kimiantonelli #georgerussell #totowolff #formula1 #formulaone #f1news #f1latest #f1updates #f1rumors #f1rumours #f1drama #alpinef1 #mercedesamg #mercedesf1 #verstappen #russell #antonelli #bottas #valtteribottas Could Mercedes Send Antonelli to ALPINE for 2026?https://youtu.be/WiE4VTe2nsYCan't watch the ladder?

The 2025 F1 Austrian Grand Prix WINNERS & LOSERS
McLaren conquered Spielberg and Red Bull walked away with nothing.Climb the ladder with me over on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsIn this more raw race report than usual, there was a lot to unpack despite the leader of the race ultimately remaining the same from qualifying. McLaren’s pace was without doubt at the 2025 Austrian Grand Prix as Lando Norris sealed victory. This means that Oscar Piastri’s championship advantage is down to 15 points and with Max Verstappen being sent out of the race by Kimi Antontelli, his championship defense looks almost impossible to claw back. Behind him Liam Lawson’s flawless one-stop carried Racing Bulls into the constructors fight for sixth while Sauber’s upgrades let Gabriel Bortoleto and Nico Hulkenberg harass an ailing George Russell and his Mercedes. Ferrari stayed steady with a top-four double finish and shut Red Bull out on home ground. Fernando Alonso’s crafty one-stop proved age is only a number as Lance Stroll and Alpine faded, Williams burned through another reliability horror and Yuki Tsunoda’s tough weekend summed up Red Bull’s worst home race in years, if not ever. 🐦 https://twitter.com/LawVSX🕚 https://tiktok.com/@lawvsf1🧵 https://threads.net/@lawvsx#f1 #austriangp #formula1 #f1news #f1latest #formulaone #austriangrandprix #f1predictions #predictions #maxverstappen #redbullracing #mclaren #charlesleclerc #redbull #f12025 #formula12025 #oscarpiastri #sauber #landonorris #mclaren 2025 Austrian Grand Prix: The WINNERS & LOSERSThe 2025 F1 Austrian Grand Prix WINNERS & LOSERShttps://youtu.be/agzpRZ6GD5c Hosted on Acast.
