How Kimi Antonelli Could Win the F1 World Title as Soon as the Next Race

The Title Is Within Reach

Kimi Antonelli could win the Formula 1 world title as soon as the next race, according to Sky Sports' analysis of the championship picture. The scenario would make him champion with races still to spare, closing out the drivers' battle early.

The Numbers Behind the Scenario

Sky Sports has set out the combination of results that would allow Antonelli to seal the crown at the next round, based on the current points gap between him and his closest rival and the maximum available at the remaining events.

Should the title be settled at the next race, attention would immediately shift to the fight behind him and to how the remaining rounds play out — a context that already includes flashpoints such as the collision between McLaren team-mates Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri and Ferrari's strategy questions around Lewis Hamilton.
