168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Nico Rosberg has told Mercedes not to give their backing to Andrea Kimi Antonelli to replace 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton too hastily.

Teenage starlet Antonelli is among the li🐷keliest candidates to step into Hamilton’s shoes with Merced🏅es in 2025.

Hamilton is leaving for Ferrari, creatin💙g a coveted🏅 vacancy and giving Toto Wolff a massive decision to make.

But Hamilto🎉n’s ex-Mercedes teammate Rosberg thinks Wไolff should delay his call.

“Antonelli is definitely a ꦺsuperstar of the future. But, unfortunately, timing-wise it is too early for him.” Rosberg told Sky Sports.

“And too early for Toto. He need💫s to wait until somewhat later in the year, as 𒁏we see how Antonelli does in Formula 2.

“He needs a strong season in Formula 2 to even make it a possibility of going sꩲtraight to Mercedes.

“Otherwise, if anything, some time at Wꦰilliams would make sense.”

Signs that Antonelli is being seriously considered for a step into F1 next season ramped up this weeꦍk, when he took part in a private t🎐est of a 2021 Mercedes W12 at the Red Bull Ring in Austria.

T🐓he 17-year-old is due to drive the 2022 car later this year, too.

Mercedes missed out on a teenage Max Verstappen so their interest in Antonelli arguably s♛uggests they don’t want to make the same mistak🍸e twice.

Fernando Alonso is no longer𒁏 available after he penned a fresh contract with Aston Martin.

Cꦉharles Leclerc and Lando Norris are committed to Ferrari and 🍌McLaren respectively.

Carlos Sainz, who Hamilton will displace at 🧜Ferrari, is still on the market.

Wolff♉ has said: “You can look at it from various perspectives.

“I believe that we are in a rebuild phase. You need to acknowledge that now three y💯ears into these regulations, we have got to do things differently than we've done in the past without throwing overboard what we believe is goodness in the w✤ay we operate.

“It could mean putting a young driver in there and giving him an opportunity with less pressure tha𒉰n fighting for victories immediately, or putting a more experienced driver in the car that can help us dig ourselves out of the current performance🍨 picture.”
