天空体育F1评论员表示，现在是时候改变关于安东内利的叙事了
Naomi Schiff表示，在安东内利已经确立自己作为真正的F1冠军争夺者之后，人们不应再把他视为青少年天才。
前W Series车手、天空体育F1分析员Naomi Schiff表示，人们必须停止把安东内利当作青少年新奇事物来看待，而应承认他是一名已经站稳脚跟的顶级车手。
在荷兰大奖赛之前，Schiff在Up To Speed播客中与Will Buxton和David Coulthard一起，评估了Antonelli在其第二个赛季上半程的突出表现。
这位梅赛德斯车手目前领跑车手积分榜，以50分的优势领先第二名刘易斯·汉密尔顿（汉密尔顿）。
尽管这支位于布拉克利的车队冒险在安东内利年纪轻轻时就提拔他，来接替转会法拉利的七届冠军汉密尔顿，但希夫（Schiff）认为，这位意大利车手稳定的表现意味着人们不应再对他持续的争冠势头感到难以置信。
"我们从他的肢体语言中看到了一些东西。他似乎不像周围的一些车手那样，肩上有同样的包袱或压力，"希夫解释道。
"这显然与他的年龄有关。这也与他只处于F1的第二个赛季有关。而且他可能并不像乔治（George）那样处于那种境地，即'好吧，兄弟，这是怎么回事？我们真的需要你开始为我们拿下这些胜利，来证明你在车队中的位置。'"
"而 Kimi 的职业生涯才刚刚处于起步阶段。车队在他身上下了大赌注，而且这个赌注正在得到回报，这显然对他有利。但我觉得我们现在也应该停止再把他当作一个年轻小孩来看待，不要再说什么‘哇，他是怎么做到的？'
"他就是在做到。他一直在做到，而且他现在正在证明自己能做到。当然这两件事可以并存，但如果他继续保持这种状态，我不会再感到那么惊讶了。
"如果 George 无法扭转自己的局面，我反而会觉得更惊讶，因为再强调一次，他是我们带着极高期望进入本赛季的车手，只是事情对他来说一直没有按那样的方向发展。
"我知道 Lewis 被夹在他们两人中间，我们不会把他排除在这场争夺之外，但如果 George 无法扭转局面，那才是最让我感到惊讶的事情。"

It is time to change the narrative around Kimi Antonelli, says Sky F1 pundit
Naomi Schiff says Kimi Antonelli should no longer be viewed as a teenage sensation after establishing himself as a genuine Formula 1 title contender
People must stop treating Kimi Antonelli as a teenage novelty and recognise him as an established top-tier racer, according to former W Series driver and Sky Sports Formula 1 analyst Naomi Schiff.
Speaking on the Up To Speed podcast alongside Will Buxton and David Coulthard ahead of the Dutch Grand Prix, Schiff evaluated Antonelli's standout performances during the first half of his second season in the championship.
The Mercedes driver currently leads the drivers' standings, holding a 50-point advantage over second-placed Lewis Hamilton.
Despite the Brackley outfit taking a gamble by promoting Antonelli at a young age to replace Hamilton as the seven-time champion moved to Ferrari, Schiff argued that the Italian driver's consistent performances mean his ongoing title charge should no longer be met with disbelief.
"There's something that we see in his body language. It's like he doesn't seem to have the same kind of baggage or weight on his shoulders as some of the drivers around him," Schiff explained.
"And that obviously does come with his age. It comes with the fact that he's only in his second season in Formula 1. And that he isn't really in a position maybe that George is, where it's kind of like, 'OK, buddy, what's going on here? We really need you to start delivering these victories for us to justify your position in the team.'
"Whereas Kimi's very much in the early stages of his career. They've taken a big bet on him. It's paying off, and that definitely plays in his favour. But I think we also need to come to a point now where we stop looking at him like this young kid, like, 'Wow, how is he doing this?'
"He's doing it. He's been doing it, and he's proving that he can do it now. And of course those two things can coexist, but I'm going to be less surprised if he keeps up this form.
"I'd be more surprised if George wasn't able to turn his situation around because again, he's a driver coming into the season that we had really high hopes for, and it just hasn't worked out for him in that way.
"I know Lewis is sandwiched in the middle of them there, and we're not going to exclude him in this battle, but that would be the thing that would surprise me most is if George doesn't turn this around."
