Andrea Kimi Antonelli suffered a major floor damage after going off track during the Australian Grand Prix qualifying.

Mercedes have won their appeal to overturn the stewards’ decision to award Kimi Antonelli a penalty at the 2025 F1 Australian Grand Prix. Antonelli was handed a five-second penalty after he was unsafely released into the path of Sauber’s Nico Hulkenberg.

Kimi Antonelli has returned to P4 on his Formula 1 debut in Melbourne after a successful Mercedes appeal. Antonelli had plenty of work ahead in his first grand prix, having dropped out in Q1 after kicking up the gravel and picking up damage to his Mercedes W16.
