The Formula 1 driver, Kimi Antonelli, was seen at Wimbledon accompanied by tennis legend Roger Federer, just 24 hours after a disappointing performance at the British Grand Prix.
A current leader of the championship, Antonelli attended the prestigious tennis tournament on Monday, where he supported Italian player Jannik Sinner on the center court. His images alongside Federer have captured the attention of fans, who have rejected the pilot’s lackluster sporting event at Silverstone.
Several fans commented on his appearance, highlighting his recent interest in tennis competitions and appreciating that he was able to share a moment like this with such an iconic figure as Federer.
Antonelli’s participation at the British GP was not as desired. Aiming to extend his championship lead, the weekend started off on the right foot, winning the sprint race after starting second on the grid, just behind seven-time champion Lewis Hamilton.
Despite securing pole position for the main race, his competition became complicated. After losing the lead at the start to Charles Leclerc of Ferrari, a problem with the vehicle forced him to battle against steering difficulties, resulting in a final classification in 15th place.
Antonelli expressed his disappointment through Instagram, emphasizing that he did not expect to end the weekend this way and that the incident with his vehicle affected him considerably. Nevertheless, he remained motivated to continue fighting in the upcoming competitions.
