When can Kimi Antonelli win the F1 title? Earliest date, points needed and remaining races

Kimi Antonelli is in a strong position to become Formula 1's youngest world champion, leading the drivers' standings by 84 points. He could potentially secure the title at the U.S. Grand Prix in Austin later this month, but would need to significantly increase his lead over teammate George Russell and outscore Lewis Hamilton as well.

To guarantee his championship, Antonelli must score 100 points in the remaining races. With seven Grands Prix and a sprint race scheduled, he has various paths to achieve this. However, the situation is complicated by the possibility of the final two races being cancelled, which would reduce the points needed to 75 if the season concludes in Imola instead.
