After a thrilling weekend in Monaco, Formula 1 is headed over to Spain for the annual Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix.
Against all odds, 19-year-old Kimi Antonelli continues to etch his name into the history books. The Mercedes driver won his fifth consecutive Grand Prix in Monaco, and now leads the standings by a 68-point margin.
After much initial struggle, Ferrari finally has a horse in the race with Lewis Hamilton, who has placed second in back-to-back races and now surpassed George Russell in points. Mercedes still leads far and away with the success of Antonelli, though.
Be sure to tune in for F1’s first Spanish race of the circuit.
