The FIA has added a clause to the Sporting Code, lowering the F1 superlicence age to 17 in individual cases. Special dispensation may be granted if they have “consistently demonstrated outstanding ability and maturity in single-seater formula car competition.” A normal drivers license is not required anymore. Paving the way for Antonelli to make his debut before he turns 18 should the opportunity arise.

Since he has the super license points already I feel like it’s not a huge deal in that regard. But I think the super license process should be revised on age so that this situation is avoided, either the driver is good enough or they aren’t, as determined by super license points.
