Kimi Antonelli says Mercedes has given him and his team-mate George Russell the freedom to race, but insists that the pair will not allow their intra-team battle to become a repeat of the infamous Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg rivalry.
The Italian driver spoke during a media conference in Brisighella as he collected the prestigious Lorenzo Bandini Trophy. Established in 1992 in honour of the late Ferrari driver who tragically passed away following a crash at the 1967 Monaco Grand Prix, the award is to acknowledge those who have had "a commendable performance in motorsport".
