Kimi Antonelli has been gifted a new towel by Kim Kardashian after the American reality star 'stole' his at the Monaco Grand Prix.
Kardashian caused a stir when she arrived in the paddock in the principality last weekend to support boyfriend Lewis Hamilton but especially when she was filmed wiping her face on a towel which she was unaware was reserved for Mercedes' Antonelli.
The Italian teenager took it all in good spirits, posting a light-hearted video on TikTok this week where he repeatedly asked "where is my towel?"
But now Kardashian has made amends by gifting Antonelli a fresh white towel with "To Kimi from Kim" stitched into it.

In a video posted on Mercedes' Instagram at this week's Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix, Antonelli is handed the towel and replies: "Thank you Kim!"
Antonelli did not let the matter distract him as he became the youngest winner of the Monaco Grand Prix and, in doing so, secured a sixth win in a row to extend his commanding championship lead.
