Mercedes Launches Pre-Orders for Kimi Antonelli's Championship Merchandise

Mercedes has opened the floodgates for fans keen to celebrate Kimi Antonelli's F1 world championship with a new merchandise line. Antonelli, who became the youngest F1 champion after clinching the title in Mexico, is now the face of a range of t-shirts, hoodies, and caps. The Italian's triumph was sealed with a third-place finish behind Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton, capping off a dominant season.

Pre-orders for a special edition t-shirt, designed by Mercedes' partner Adidas, are now live. Sporting the champion's logo on the back, the black t-shirt is set at £35 and will be available from 25 November. Alongside it, a £45 cap featuring Antonelli's signature and the champions logo is also up for pre-order, with deliveries starting the same day.

Fans can also snag additional Adidas merchandise celebrating Antonelli's first world title through the F1 Store. These include 'car graphic' t-shirts priced at £30.

In the broader F1 merchandise scene, Mercedes isn't the only team making waves. Lewis Hamilton and Ferrari have jointly unveiled a new special edition Brazil cap, priced at £43, featuring Hamilton's iconic yellow with a Brazilian flair. Audi, not to be outdone, has partnered with Adidas for the Sampa Soul collection, offering caps, t-shirts with track designs, and green replica driver jerseys in time for the Brazilian GP.

With Mercedes possibly eyeing a Constructors' title, more merchandise could be on the horizon, but only a few weeks after any such victory. Meanwhile, fans can enjoy the current offerings as the F1 season races towards its climax.
