Kimi Antonelli’s third-place finish at the Hungaroring was his ninth podium from the opening 11 Grands Prix of 2026. Six of those podiums were victories.

NINE POINTS FINISHES, NINE PODIUMS

Antonelli won in China, Japan, Miami, Canada, Monaco and Belgium. He also finished second in Australia and third in Austria and Hungary.

He has not recorded a non-podium points finish in a Grand Prix this season: all nine of his top-10 results ended on the podium. Only Barcelona-Catalunya, where he retired, and Great Britain, where he finished outside the top 10, interrupted the pattern.

50 POINTS CLEAR

Antonelli reached the summer break with 219 championship points, 50 ahead of Lewis Hamilton and 59 ahead of George Russell.
