Ahead of the Mexican Grand Prix, Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff said people do not understand how much the team has invested in rookie driver Kimi Antonelli. Wolff was responding to comments by Piero Ferrari, who drew a comparison between Antonelli and Ferrari legend Niki Lauda. The exchange adds to ongoing debate about Antonelli's development in his first Formula 1 season.
