Kimi Antonelli set to star alongside Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck in iconic Disney comic book

Kimi Antonelli, a rising star in Formula 1, is set to appear in the iconic Disney comic book Topolino ahead of the Italian Grand Prix. Currently leading the 2026 drivers' standings, Antonelli has a chance to become the youngest world champion in F1 history. If he wins the upcoming race, he would be the first Italian to do so in 60 years, following Ludovico Scarfiotti's victory in 1966.

In the comic, Antonelli is transformed into a character named Kimi Paperelli, featuring in four chapters related to the race. The collaboration between Disney and F1 has also been extended, with Lightning McQueen scheduled to make an appearance at Monza, adding to the excitement surrounding the event.
