Kimi Antonelli has done it again. The 19-year-old Mercedes driver just became the tenth driver in Formula 1 history to lead ten consecutive races, a feat he achieved by winning at the Belgian Grand Prix at Spa-Francorchamps. What makes this milestone genuinely special isn't just the company he's now keeping, it's how ridiculously young he is doing it. Antonelli is by far the youngest driver ever to reach this mark, and he's accomplished it in just his second season in the sport. That's absolutely mental.

The list of drivers who've done this reads like an F1 hall of fame. Lewis Hamilton, Jackie Stewart, Michael Schumacher, Max Verstappen, Sebastian Vettel, Ayrton Senna, Fernando Alonso, Jim Clark, and Alain Prost all precede him on that list. Those nine drivers between them have won 29 world championships. Antonelli hasn't won a single title yet, but at the rate he's going, that conversation is getting harder to ignore. He's currently leading the 2026 World Drivers' Championship by 50 points heading into the second half of the season.

His 2026 campaign has been absolutely relentless. After a second place finish in Australia, Antonelli then rattled off five consecutive wins in China, Japan, Miami, Canada, and Monaco. He's also broken other historic records along the way, becoming F1's youngest pole sitter in China and the youngest driver to lead the championship in Japan. In fact, he was one of only a handful of drivers ever to nail his first three pole positions in back-to-back races.

What really separates Antonelli's achievement from everyone else on that list is his age and the manner in which he's dominating. He's not just winning races, he's leading the championship at 19 years old in only his second season. The paddock is running out of superlatives to describe what he's doing out there. At this rate, he's not chasing history anymore. He's making it right in front of us.
