Is Antonelli Already a Champion? Japan GP Breakdown
Episode 62
Monday, 30 March, 2026
Kimi Antonelli takes control of the 2026 Formula 1 season with a dominant win at the Japanese Grand Prix, becoming the youngest championship leader in history. But was this a statement drive… or did McLaren throw away a guaranteed victory? In this episode of Paddock 43, we break down everything from the Japan GP, including Antonelli’s rise as a genuine title contender, Oscar Piastri’s missed opportunity after a perfect start, and whether McLaren’s strategy cost them the race. We also dive into the controversial safety car moment following Ollie Bearman’s massive crash, the growing concerns around closing speeds in the 2026 regulations, and what it means for driver safety going forward. Plus, we ask the big question: Is Max Verstappen going to leave F1?
