Lando Norris
Fast on Saturday, ruthless on Sunday.
- World Champion
- Lando won the 2025 Drivers' title, McLaren's first since 2008 and his first crown.
- Grown up in papaya
- He joined McLaren in 2019 and has been with the team through the lean years and the rebuild. The title is a story of loyalty paying off.
- Raw pace
- Few drivers can put a lap together like him. When the car is right, he's often the one on pole.
- The best personality on the grid
- He's funny, honest about his own mistakes, and the fans love him for it.
Kimi Antonelli
Eighteen years old and already rewriting the record books.
- Handed Hamilton's seat
- Mercedes chose Kimi to replace Lewis Hamilton for 2025. That's a huge vote of confidence for a teenager.
- Youngest ever, again and again
- He broke records for his age from his very first season, including becoming the youngest pole-sitter in F1 history (Miami Sprint, 2025) and one of the youngest podium finishers.
- Calm under pressure
- He goes wheel to wheel with world champions and doesn't blink.
- Only getting started
- Born in 2006, he has an entire career ahead of him. Remember where you were when you first saw him race.
Two generations, one grid
Lando is the champion who earned it the hard way. Kimi is the teenager who showed up and made it look easy. They're rivals on track and clearly respect each other off it, and between them they are the best argument for Formula 1's future.
