Lindblad said: "I just waited a couple of laps, tried to manage my tyres a little bit, and then I knew as soon as he lost the group in front, and I had the overtake, I'd have one shot, and I made sure to use it properly."

Wolff on Antonelli's serenity after Belgian Grand Prix win

Toto Wolff says Kimi Antonelli’s “serenity and structure” has been a key factor in allowing the Mercedes driver’s talent to shine, after the 19-year-old won the Belgian Grand Prix. Wolff said: "We're all surprised. But what was not expected is the serenity and structure that he brought into his game. With Kimi, whether the session was good or bad, you wouldn't see a difference in emotions in the debrief. It is absolutely transactional. What is the problem? How do we solve it? How do we move on? And I think this mindset and this attitude is probably one of the main drivers that has allowed the talent to shine so early in his career."
