PALMER: Antonelli’s Monaco win proved he’s on the path to greatness

It’s five in a row now for Kimi Antonelli, who put in his best work yet across the Monaco weekend and left us searching for yet more superlatives for a man who is now in a very illustrious club.
Only Michael Schumacher, Nico Rosberg, Alberto Ascari, Max Verstappen and Sebastian Vettel have won more F1 races consecutively – and you can add Lewis Hamilton, Jack Brabham, Jim Clark and Nigel Mansell to that list, for drivers who Kimi has now matched with his fifth.
