Mercedes have been the dominant force in the early months of the new campaign and teenage sensation Kimi Antonelli sits top of the Drivers' World Championship after three wins on the bounce.

There is a long, long way to go but Antonelli will look to cement his position as title favourite at Circuit de Gilles-Villeneuve, while teammate George Russell is leading the pack in pursuit.

The 24-race season will take drivers from Australia through Asia, the Middle East, and North America, before arriving in Europe and then concluding with a globe-trotting final stretch.
