Antonelli to stick with no. 12 despite having option to use no. 1 after F1 title win

After becoming the youngest-ever F1 world champion, Mercedes driver Kimi Antonelli said he will stick to his race number 12 for his 2027 title defence. The 20-year-old has the option to switch to number 1 after winning the title. "[Twelve] is a very special number for me...Also, it's a way for me to stay grounded, to stay humble," he said.
