Il Fatto Quotidiano: Kimi Antonelli: “Toto Wolff ha chiuso me e George Russell in uno stanzino. Valentino Rossi mi ha dato un consiglio” Tantissimi allenamenti sulle partenze, fino ad avere il braccio dolorante. Ma anche un viaggio al Ranch di Valentino Rossi, per visitare l’Academy del campione di moto e carpire anche qualche segreto. Così Kimi Antonelli ha vissuto la sosta forzata della Formula 1, passata da leader del Mondiale. Ora che si torna in pista a Miami, con grandi novità sia nel regolamento sia negli aggiornamenti portati dai team, cresce la pressione attorno al 19enne pilota della Mercedes. Il team principal Toto Wolff dice che non bisogna chiedergli di vincere il titolo, ma Antonelli non si nasconde: “Io dal canto mio però voglio andare forte e alzare sempre l’asticella, perché i nostri avversari si stanno avvicinando”. Anche per questo, come ha raccontato in un’intervista alla Gazzetta dello Sport, Antonelli ha provato tante le partenze che finora sono state il suo vero tallone d’Achille. Ne ha simulate “almeno un centinaio. Mi faceva malissimo il braccio da quante ne ho provate”. Un lavoro fatto con il team, per gestire meglio i nuovi sistemi, in attesa delle modifiche alla frizione che dovrebbero arrivare per il Gp del Canada. Antonelli in questo momento è il principale rivale del suo compagno di squadra, George Russell, il vero candidato al titolo. La Mercedes dovrà riuscire a gestire eventuali frizioni interne: “Toto Wolff in Australia, prima della prima gara, ha messo me e George in uno stanzino e ci ha spiegato molto bene questo punto: la squadra vuole tornare a vincere il titolo Costruttori, questa è la priorità”. Un aneddoto svelato dal 19enne che racconta molto della consapevolezza nel team riguardo alla sua forza. Un altro aneddoto riguarda invece la visita da Valentino Rossi: “Vale era molto contento per me, mi ha detto che ha fatto un gran tifo nelle ultime gare e di continuare a fare ciò che sto facendo senza preoccuparmi troppo“. Un consiglio prezioso, visto che arriva da un 9 volte campione del mondo. Antonelli proverà a metterlo in pratica già dal Gp di Miami: tra sabato e domenica, con Sprint e gara, ci sono subito in palio altri punti pesanti. LA CLASSIFICA DI FORMULA 1 L'articolo Kimi Antonelli: “Toto Wolff ha chiuso me e George Russell in uno stanzino. Valentino Rossi mi ha dato un consiglio” proviene da Il Fatto Quotidiano. Kimi Antonelli: “Toto Wolff boxed me and George Russell in.” Valentino Rossi gave me some advice.” Many workouts on starts, until his arm was sore. But also a trip to Valentino Rossi’s Ranch, to visit the champion’s academy and to glean some secrets. That’s how Kimi Antonelli spent the forced Formula 1 break, having been leading the World Championship. Now that they’re returning to the track in Miami, with major changes to the regulations and updates brought by the teams, pressure is increasing around the 19-year-old Mercedes driver. Team principal Toto Wolff says he shouldn’t be asked to win the title, but Antonelli isn’t hiding it: “However, I want to go strong and constantly raise the bar, because our rivals are getting closer.” For this reason, as he told Gazzetta dello Sport in an interview, Antonelli tried many starts that had been his true Achilles’ heel so far. He simulated “at least a hundred of them. My arm would really hurt from how many I tried.” This work was done with the team to better manage the new systems, awaiting modifications to the clutch that should arrive for the Canadian GP. Antonelli is currently the main rival of his teammate, George Russell, the true favorite for the title. Mercedes will need to manage any internal friction: “Toto Wolff in Australia, before the first race, put me and George in a small room and explained this point to us very well: the team wants to return to winning the Constructors’ Championship, this is the priority.” An anecdote revealed by the 19-year-old that says a lot about the team’s awareness of his strength. Another anecdote concerns the visit to Valentino Rossi: “Vale was very happy for me, he said he cheered a lot for me in the last races and to continue doing what I’m doing without worrying too much.” A valuable piece of advice, coming from a nine-time world champion. Antonelli will try to put it into practice already at the Miami GP: over Saturday and Sunday, with Sprint and race, there are immediately important points at stake. FORMULA 1 RANKING The article Kimi Antonelli: “Toto Wolff has closed me and George Russell in a small room. Valentino Rossi gave me a piece of advice” comes from Il Fatto Quotidiano. #KimiAntonelli #TotoWolff #GeorgeRussell #ValentinoRossi #ValentinoRossi’s #Miami #Mercedes #Antonelli #GazzettadelloSport #Canadian #Australia #first #George #Sprint #IlFattoQuotidiano https://www.ilfattoquotidiano.it/2026/05/01/kimi-antonelli-toto-wolff-ha-chiuso-me-george-russell-in-uno-stanzino-valentino-rossi-mi-ha-dato-un-consiglio/8372535/

I went out to lunch today at a cafe with a friend. I had a hamburger. With beetroot relish. Yum! We're obviously in Australia. A hamburger is not a hamburger if it's not under the influence of beetroot. 🫜 #Hamburger #Beetroot #Australia

#Australia Nationals leader Matt Canavan has long opposed climate action. Most notably, he led the charge last year to remove the aspirational target of net zero by 2050 from the Nationals’ platform. The Liberals swiftly followed suit. The Coalition’s latest objectives seem to be curbing immigration, promoting so-called “Australian values” and celebrating the ongoing extraction of fossil fuels https://theconversation.com/why-the-coalitions-lurch-to-the-right-is-bad-for-the-climate-280915 #ClimateChange #UpheavalClimate #pollution #ecology #environment #climate

In Campbell Town, central Tasmania, they have a statue of Elizabeth Furlong. She was part of a farming dynasty that helped introduce Merino sheep to Australia. I like the way the town commemorate socio economic achievement rather than politico military like so many do. And it's good that the woman of the family gets recognition rather than being erased and eclipsed by her male relatives. #Tasmania #lutruwita #Australia #Statue #Equality #Womensrights

#Australia Having been granted an extended 40-year lease to continue to mine gas on the Burrup Peninsula, Woodside is now seeking federal government approval to drill 57 gas wells at Scott Reef. It would have devastating consequences for endangered species, migrating whales & a warming planet, in part due to Woodside’s toxic emissions https://www.greenleft.org.au/2026/1452/news/climate-protesters-demand-answers-woodside #ClimateChange #GlobalWarming #UpheavalClimate #ClimateInstability #MassAtrocity #pollution #ecology #environment #climate #ClimateStrike

So, it now seems like ASIO will be able to:

  • arrest you for questioning with approval rubber-stamped by the AG (instead of a warrant after a judge being shown evidence)
  • detain you indefinitely

If you are arrested or detained by ASIO, it’s now illegal to:

  • tell someone that happened to you
  • refuse to speak (rely on the right to silence)

This includes children as young as 14 years old—meaning they can’t tell their parent or guardian that they’ve been arrested.

Lawyers are permitted to be present during questioning, but I’m not sure if they are included in the “you can’t tell anyone” clause of the legislation, and the ASIO agents who are conducting the interrogation get to dictate how they advise and interact with their clients.

Your lawyer can also be removed if those ASIO agents decide they’re a “security risk”.

Your lawyer isn’t allowed to intervene during the interrogation (to tell you your rights, for example), and can only ask for the agents to clarify a question or ask for you to be able to have a break.

This legislation will also have no sunset clause. It’ll be permanent.

(this is only from a quick scan of the legislation, I’m sure there’s a bunch of other things I’m missing atm)

We’ve been typically light on rain so I turned the sprinkler on and came back out to the local #magpie family enjoying themselves 😍 I do keep a container there for water so they are frequent visitors #gardening #australia
