Jacques Villeneuve lobt Antonellis Glück vor dem Rennen in Barcelona

Der ehemalige Formel-1-Weltmeister Jacques Villeneuve hat den jüngsten Erfolg von Kimi Antonelli mit dem von Michael Schumacher verglichen und erklärt, warum George Russell auf dem Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya im Vorteil ist.

Villeneuve erklärte, dass Antonelli vom "Glück der Champions" profitiere. Er merkte an, dass der 19-jährige Mercedes-Pilot fünf Grands Prix in Folge in China, Japan, Miami, Kanada und Monaco gewonnen hat.

Antonelli führt die Fahrerwertung mit 66 Punkten Vorsprung vor Lewis Hamilton auf dem zweiten Platz an. George Russell liegt auf dem dritten Platz, zwei Punkte hinter Hamilton.

Villeneuve sagte gegenüber Sky Sports F1, dass Russells ruhigerer Fahrstil besser zur rutschigen Strecke in Barcelona passe als Antonellis Ansatz. Russell belegte an diesem Wochenende in der ersten und dritten Trainingseinheit den ersten Platz.

Der Grand Prix von Barcelona-Catalunya soll am Sonntag, den 14. Juni, um 15:00 Uhr Ortszeit starten.
