‘No stopping him’: Hamilton admits defeat as Antonelli charges towards F1 world title

Lewis Hamilton has conceded that his Formula 1 world championship bid for the 2026 season is over following the Spanish Grand Prix. Speaking after the latest race, Hamilton stated that "there's no stopping" championship leader Kimi Antonelli.

The remarks from the veteran driver came in the wake of Antonelli securing another victory. With these comments, Hamilton appeared to abandon hopes of securing a record-breaking eighth Formula 1 drivers' title this year as Antonelli continues to dominate the current championship standings.
