Mercedes boss rules out replacing Lewis Hamilton with 17-year-old wonderkid

Toto Wolff has seemingly ruled out the possibility of signing 17-year-old Kimi Antonelli to replace Sir Lewis Hamilton at Mercedes.

Hamilton is set to join Ferrari in 2025, leaving his beloved Silver Arrows after 11 highly-successful years.

Attention has of course now turned to who could replace the most successful Formula 1 driver of all-time, with many drivers interested in joining one of the fastest teams on the grid.

Among the names linked is Mercedes junior driver Antonelli, whom many have already likened to Hamilton and Max Verstappen due to the way he had climbed up the racing ladder at such a young age.
