Antonelli leads F1 championship by 45 points into Hungarian GP summer-break finale

Kimi Antonelli, 19, leads the 2026 Formula 1 drivers' championship with 204 points after winning six of the first ten races. Lewis Hamilton (Ferrari) sits second on 159, with Mercedes teammate George Russell third on 154. The Hungarian Grand Prix on July 26 at the Hungaroring is the final round before the summer break — Antonelli's 45-point cushion substantial but not secure.
