AUSTIN, Texas, Oct 21 (Reuters) - Kimi Antonelli is set to become Formula One's youngest champion, and Italy's first in 73 years, but the 20-year-old Mercedes driver will have to win and hope the stars align if he is to convert his first 'match point' in Texas on Sunday.
Four years old when Sebastian Vettel became the hitherto youngest champion at 23 with Red Bull in 2010, the racer from Bologna has a mighty 102-point lead over teammate George Russell ahead of the US Grand Prix in Austin.

德克萨斯州奥斯汀，10 月 21 日（路透社）——基米·安东内利有望成为一级方程式赛车历史上最年轻的冠军，也是 73 年来意大利的首位冠军。但这位 20 岁的梅赛德斯车手必须赢得比赛，并希望一切顺利，才能在周日于德克萨斯州兑现他的第一个“赛点”。
2010 年，塞巴斯蒂安·维特尔 (Sebastian Vettel) 以 23 岁之龄代表红牛车队夺得世界冠军，成为当时最年轻的世界冠军。如今，这位来自博洛尼亚的车手在奥斯汀举行的美国大奖赛之前，领先队友乔治·拉塞尔 (George Russell) 102 分之多。
