Vasco Rossi praises Kimi Antonelli as a symbol of meritocracy

Italian singer Vasco Rossi has expressed his support for racing driver Kimi Antonelli ahead of the Mexico City Grand Prix. Speaking from Los Angeles, Rossi highlighted the 20-year-old driver as a positive role model for Italian youth.

Rossi noted that Antonelli’s ascent to the top of Formula 1 serves as a concrete example of meritocracy, contrasting the discipline and hard work required for athletic success against the perceived ease of social media influence.
