Minichamps 1/12 Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team W17 K. Antonelli World Champion Mexico GP 2026 with Figurine Pitboard and Trophy

This Minichamps 1:12 replica depicts the Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team W17 No.12 that carried Kimi Antonelli to the 2026 Formula 1 World Championship. Antonelli sealed the title at the Mexico City Grand Prix on 1 November 2026, where third place behind Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton was more than enough. At 20 years and 68 days he became the youngest World Champion in Formula 1 history, and the first Italian champion since Alberto Ascari in 1953.

Minichamps has reproduced the title-winning W17 in finely detailed resin, capturing its 2026 livery and sponsor details as a sealed display model. It comes with a standing figure of Antonelli, the pitboard and the World Champion trophy to mark the occasion, all presented in a display case.

Kimi Antonelli: Formula 1’s Youngest World Champion

Andrea Kimi Antonelli arrived at Mercedes in 2025 as Lewis Hamilton’s replacement, a teenager promoted straight from Formula 2 into one of the most scrutinised seats on the grid. His rookie season brought a first podium in Canada, and with it the sense that Mercedes had found something special.

2026 brought all-new technical regulations, and Mercedes-AMG’s W17 was ready from the first race. Antonelli took his first Grand Prix victory in China, then followed it with wins in Japan, Miami, Canada and Monaco as he built a commanding lead in the championship.

He sealed the title at the Mexico City Grand Prix on 1 November 2026. Third place behind Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton was more than enough, and it settled the championship with four races still to run. At 20 years and 68 days, Antonelli became the youngest World Champion in Formula 1 history, and the first Italian champion since Alberto Ascari in 1953.
