Kimi Antonelli TAKE A BOW!
At just 20 years old he's broken the record for the youngest ever World Champion by over three years!
So, what makes Kimi so special? How did he achieve that at such a young age? Was Lewis Hamilton right to be so ANGRY after the incident with Charles Leclerc? And will we ever see Esteban Ocon again after he was DROPPED by Haas?

Naomi is joined by the newly crowned F1 Academy Champion Alisha Palmowski, the competition's youngest ever winner at just 20 years old. And later, we welcome last year's runner-up with Ferrari, Maya Weug, who went viral after posting about her struggles to find a racing seat.
So how did it feel to lift the trophy with three races to spare? What has Alisha learnt from Red Bull and Max Verstappen? What are the most common misconceptions about female racing? No woman has raced in F1 for over 50 years, so what change does Maya want to see to finally fix that?
For people new to F1 Academy its an all-female racing series that runs alongside F1 to prepare women for higher levels of motorsport, roughly equivalent to F4 level.
