Antonelli wins to become youngest title leader

Key Points

  • Kimi Antonelli secured his second consecutive win and the world championship lead at the Japanese Grand Prix, benefiting from a safety-car period that allowed him a cheap pit stop.
  • McLaren's Oscar Piastri finished second, marking their first podium of the 2026 season and showing improved performance that could have led to a win without the safety car.
  • George Russell expressed frustration after finishing fourth, having led parts of the race, as he dropped back due to strategic misfortune and late-race battles.
  • The safety car was deployed after Oliver Bearman crashed heavily, incurring a 50G impact and a knee contusion, though he was later released from the medical centre.
  • The article also notes the cancellation of the Bahrain and Saudi Arabia Grands Prix due to the US/Israeli war with Iran, leading to a five-week break in the season.
