Antonelli Targets Improved Starts in Spring Break

Published April 7, 2026 · Updated April 7, 2026 · Motorsport.com

Championship leader Kimi Antonelli will use the Formula 1 spring break to work on his race starts, which have cost him 18 positions across the first three grands prix and China sprint.

Despite winning two races from pole position this season, Kimi Antonelli has struggled with race starts, losing a combined 18 positions on lap one. The championship leader aims to address this issue during the upcoming F1 spring break.

Antonelli's poor starts have become a significant factor in his 2026 campaign, threatening his overall championship position despite his strong qualifying performances.
