A passionate defence has been launched for 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Andrea Kimi Antonelli who was cཧriticised for inviting his f🌊riends to an F1 grand prix.

Mercedes’ talented rookie Antonelli was⛦ surrounded by his classmates last weekend at Imola,✨ his first F1 race on home soil in Italy.

It was a remind♍er of h🍷is tender age, and that he is balancing Formula 1 with his exams.

But Jacques Villeneuve didn’t look kindly upon it, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:saying “you shouldn’t do that”.

This weekend at the F1 Monaco Grand Prix, Sky Sports’ Ted Kravitz reported: “The interesting thing for me; [Antonelli] said that his preparation foওr his home race at Imola last time out was the wrong way to go.

“He has been open and admitted that ‘I know what I 🥀did wrong, and I will change for my next home race at Monza’.”

“Jacques felt it was the wrong way to go.

“Kimi has admitted his preparation wasn’t right. When he stepped into the car fꦍor the first time at Imola, he felt he wasn’t꧑ best prepared.”

Kimi Antonelli defended for bringing mates to F1 paddock

David Croft had his say: “It’s a rookie season for a reason.🐼 You 🍸learn from that rookie season.

“When he finally hangs his gloves up and retires - which I hope is in many, mꦅany years to come - Kimi will look back at his first race in Italy and say ‘wasn’t it great to have my mates there, my classmates there, it was a special moment’.”

Karun Chandhok looked to Mercedes and said: “The💙 team needs to help him with that. They have the experience of how to managꦰe the drivers’ time and energy.

“There is a constant debate about wha⛎t’s right for sponsors, and media commitments, and what’s best for the driver.”

But Jenson Butto𓃲n provided another defence for Antonelli.

“I can’t imagine he missed meetings,” Button i🅺nsisted.

“Just b𝓰ecause we saw a photo, it doesn’t mean he was hangi🔥ng out with them all weekend.

“It’s a tricky one. It’s about what it does to a driver mentally, having ev🍎eryone there.

“But I don’t thin༺k ♒his time with his team was any different.”

Button remembered feeling distracted in his first F1 grand✅ prix on home soil.

“Yes, but it wa𒊎sn’t having my friends there which was the issue. I was busy with sponsors,” he remembered.

“My first British Grand Prix, in 2000, ꦑI finished fifth and I had my friends there.

“We were hanging out in [Patrick Head’s] office drinking something nice. He came up, when we were there having fun and being loud, he shook his ꧒head and walked out.

“You need to enjoy those moments wit🎃h friends a🎀nd loved ones.”
