Kimi Antonelli He achieved last week his first podium at F1, at Canada. The Mercedes’ young jewel has been managed to become the third youngest pilot in history to achieve this. Many may think that the Italian of 18 years will take the opportunity to celebrate it in the style of Montréal, but not. He needs to contain himself. As Kimi himself recognized after the race, he had to study … “If not, my mother wouldn’t be happy.” “I have to avoid the hangover,” He saw laughter. And it was on his return to Italy, this Wednesday, he had to start the equivalent of Selection tests, the ‘maturità’, to receive the title after high school.
Toto Wolff’s student, who does not replace less than Lewis Hamilton to Mercedes in his year of F1 debut, must alternate his ongoing journey and competition training and his increase in F1 with his existence in class to study international relationships and marketing at Gaetano Salveno Technical-Economic Institute of Caskechio Bologna.
And this Wednesday, he had his first exam with his classmates in the 5th class of the aforementioned center, which he invited to the last GP of Emilie-Romagna so he could live with the F1 experience from within. After that test, the Italy pilot attended the media waiting for him outside the middle.
“It’s nice to have the opportunity to take a test with my colleagues: it makes you feel better, even if we can’t help each other …”, Kimi Antonelli said in the newspaper ‘Il Rest of the Carlino’ and the news agency ‘Ansa’.
Kimi explained what she did last night: “We were all in my house, we reviewed a little and then listened to the song” night before the tests. “Then we celebrated virtus success: it was a good moment, especially after the weekend in Canada, to remove the tension.”
“Better 100 in choosing or on the Austria podium? The two things,” Mercedes said, who on Thursday faced many tests. “Tomorrow touches in English, I don’t care. It’s also my favorite subject.” The theme of oral exams, especially in mathematics, develops more headache: “For the mouth, I’m a bit backward on the agenda, I’m trying to catch up.
Emilie-Romagna expects to finish all tests before the Austrian GP. And after the F1 World Cup’s 11th quote, he wanted to celebrate that the Canada Podium and the long graduation: “Maybe in San Marino or Riccione, we’ll see. But it’s definitely in my friends’ company and we’re celebrating the Canadian podium, the end and, I hope too, too for the results of Austria.”
Kimi didn’t want to leave without gratitude to the education center where she completed her study, saying she supported her all the time: “For teachers it was a lot of work and tried to fix everything around my promises: I need to have nothing more for my sports activities. In fact, I should thank all the teachers for their existence.”
Kimi’s teacher: “I was called to GP”
The coordinating professor of the 5ºG class of the Gaetano Salvemini Technical-Economic Institute of CalayoCchio Di Reno, emphasized the great work and efforts of the Italian pilot for his studies.
“He told me he was more excited about the choice than a F1 career,” Kimi’s teacher Alessandra Regina for the ‘ANSA’ agency, said in the morning, before a study center to create a special entry reserved so that Kimi could enter class with her classmates without doing so before the cameras.
“Kimi Antonelli has always had many sports promises, but she never lost sight of the school or her goal, to make the choice. We were happy and proud that Kimi made the choice of her classmates. She was a very humble boy and her classmates supported her,” she added.
“When he was on his way to the big prizes, he called me or wrote to me to ask me things or go straight to the airport and come to class to explain things and then do the comrades in the test that there was a wonderful relationship between him and the other boys and good because they supported him.”
“Your dream? Being a Formula 1 champion and managed to get to the podium, so we’re proud of it,” he concluded.
