Toto Wolff drops biggest hint yet over Lewis Hamilton replacement with teenager a ‘very strong contender’It’s a name out of left-field

TOTO WOLFF has dropped his biggest hint yet as to who will replace Lewis Hamilton at Mercedes. It ended an 11 year association between Hamilton and Mercedes which began in 2013. But Wolff has surprisingly named 17-year-old F2 driver Kimi Antonelli as the person in the “strongest position” to take over at Mercedes. I want to see how his F2 season develops, but we will wait and see what happens with some of the other drivers in F1. And then we are going to put him in the 2022 car to see what the difference is. “I’m really keen and happy to see [Antonelli] in a F1 car.
