About kimi.cards
The hobby, decoded — free tools and honest guidance for Kimi Antonelli and F1 card collectors.
What this site is
kimi.cards is a reference site and toolbox for Kimi Antonelli and Formula 1 card collectors. We build free interactive tools — a grading ROI calculator, a centering tool, and a collection value tracker — alongside reference guides, set pages, driver card histories, and a release calendar that tracks what's actually available to buy.
Where to start
If you've landed here first, this is the whole site in one place.
New to F1 cards. Start with the six routes into a Kimi Antonelli collection — it's the page that decides what you should be buying before you spend anything, and it hands off to everything below. Then the two reference guides: what actually counts as a rookie card (the answer is narrower than eBay listing titles suggest), and how refractors and parallels work — why the serial stamp, not the color, is what tells you what you're holding.
Working out what a card is worth. We never print price estimates, because a card is worth what one just sold for and nothing else. Instead, this page shows you how to read the market yourself by type and grade, off live listings and sold comps. If you're deciding whether a raw card is worth submitting, run it through the grading ROI calculator and check the centering first.
Chasing specific cards. Rookie and prospect-era cards covers the set families worth searching; autographs and chrome covers the high end. Every list points at live eBay searches rather than a static price.
Learning a set. The set pages break down what's inside each product in the Topps Formula 1 program — Chrome, flagship paper, Sapphire, Turbo Attax, Topps Now and Dynasty — plus the release calendar for what's next.
Following a driver or a team. The Kimi Antonelli hub is the deepest page here; the Mercedes-AMG Petronas hub covers the garage he shares. More drivers and teams are added as their card programs grow.
Just browsing what's in stock. The category pages sort live availability by what you're actually buying — sealed boxes, graded slabs, chrome refractors, rookie cards, autographs and supplies.
Who runs it
kimi.cards is independently operated — not owned by a manufacturer, retailer, or media group. It is written and edited by Luca Bertani, the site's editor. The perspective here comes from handling, grading, buying, and selling real cardboard every day — not from reprinting press releases. The daily product availability data is refreshed automatically from live retailer listings.
How we make money
Transparently: through affiliate links (Amazon Associates and the eBay Partner Network — if you buy through our links we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you) and display advertising. We don't sell your data, we don't accept payment for rankings, and out-of-stock products are flagged honestly rather than hidden. Full details in our privacy policy.
How recommendations work
Product picks are based on real availability, actual buyer reviews, format value (cards-per-dollar, odds, exclusives), and what collectors actually do with them. When something is out of stock or a listing dies, our system catches it daily and we swap or flag it. If a product is only good for ripping fun and not for value, we say so.
