W♚olff has strongly hinted that Mercedes will sign junior driver Andrea Kimi Antonelli as Le🔯wis Hamilton’s replacement.

During the Canadian Grand Prix week📖end, Wolff told Sky Germany on Friday that Mercedes “want to concentrat♒e” on Antonelli.

Wolff also revealed tha👍t Mercedes have informed Sainz so that he can make a decision on his own future, rather than w🔥ait.

“We just want to concentrate on Kimi, that is our fu💮ture, young drivers," Wolff told Sky Germany.

“We want to c✱ommit to that, to young drivers and that is what we’ve told Carlos.”

Merced꧅es are still waiting to announce their full driver line-up.

Antonelli is currently competing in FIA Formula𒁏 2, and doesn’t turn 18 until August.

Wolff was then asked again about the𒈔 situation during Sky Sports F1’s coverage after qualifying.

𝐆Again, Wolff reiterated that they didn’t want to keep Sainz waiting, strongly hinting that Antonelli will be given the call-up for 2025.

“I think first of all, Carlos deserves a top seat. He’s done a fantastic job but for us, we’ve embarked on a route now to say ꦑyou know what we want to reinvent ourselves a bit going forward and Kimi Antonelli definitely plays a part in that.

“We haven’t taken a decisio✅n yet for next year but we didn’t want to have Carlos wait as he needs to take a decision for himself. That’s jus🦋t fair. He’s doing a super job.”
