The 19-year-old’s records It is now known to everyone that Andrea Kimi Antonelli is experiencing a golden moment awaiting the Miami Grand Prix: in the first three races of this season, the 19-year-old from Mercedes achieved three podiums, but above all two consecutive victories (the first of his career) which allowed him to climb to the top of the Drivers’ standings. The Bolognese thus became, in a short space of time, not only the youngest ever to have won a Formula 1 GP, but also the youngest of all time to have occupied the leadership of the world championship. Added to this was another personal best recently, this time off the slopes. A luxury figurine The successes, in fact, have done nothing but significantly increase its image and the value of its merchandising, as demonstrated by what happened last Saturday evening. At the auction organized by Topps (an American trading card manufacturing company), a card autographed by the driver and a piece of the jersey worn by the latter in a race in 2025 was sold, all for the incredible sum of 201,910 dollars. JUST SOLD: This Kimi Antonelli 1-of-1 race-worn patch autograph fetched $201,910 at auction last night, making it the most expensive Antonelli card ever.It’s also the 7th-most expensive F1 card of all time (via @GoldinCo) pic.twitter.com/EN7dbEbrdu— Topps (@Topps) April 12, 2026 And yet.. A sale that represents a record for the Bolognese, but which nevertheless occupies 7th place in the ranking of the most expensive cards ever in the world of F1. The absolute record is the one that still belongs to Lewis Hamilton, whose sticker, also in this case autographed and dating back to 2020, was sold four years later for over a million dollars.
