for Kimi Antonelli, which I think is one of the biggest compliments I could give someone of his experience level so far in Formula One.
Even when the start, maybe it did go to plan.
Maybe it was always in his plan to let someone get in front of him, use their battery going down the hill after the source to then use his battery, of course, going up through the Campbell Strait.
It was an interesting tactic.
We saw Max Verstappen get in front early on.
And I think in a different time where
battery wasn't as important and being flat out was normal in a racing sport, you have maybe thought, oh, I can hold on to this or I can play a different game where I might do a little cheeky lift off at the top of Eau Rouge and Radeon and then allow the car to run out of momentum.
We've seen it before with the likes of Hamilton and Vettel only a few years ago.
But Kimi Antonelli uses his battery perfectly.
Sales pass Max Verstappen
But to the point where Verstappen's got so little battery that the Ferrari, who was also further back, is also challenging.
And at that point, it looks so comfortable for Antonelli, just sticking ahead, a couple of seconds in front, to the point where Bongo comes over and says, your tyres are good.
If you want to actually go faster, you can.
You can step on it if you want, mate.
If you fancy it.
He's going, oh, oh, too many fastest laps normally.
Should I go?
Fine, now I'll go faster.
And he did go faster.
He comes out in front.
