Formula 1's summer break has been going on for over a week now, so it is time to see what Formula 1 drivers are actually doing on holiday. Are they lazing around or working hard to keep their driving skills up to scratch? GPblog sums it up for you.

Red Bull Racing

Sergio Perez and Max Verstappen do a game together. The two Red Bull drivers both put on blinded glasses and try to score with each other. A game of football with a twist, in other words.

For Red Bull driver Perez, that was not the only activity. No cocktail by the Mediterranean for the 33-year-old driver, just another driveable car. The Mexican crawled behind the wheel of an orange bolide and tore through the sandy plains.

Lewis Hamilton

For Lewis Hamilton, things are very different. For him, no car or anything else on tyres, but a fresh dip in clear blue water.

Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris

McLaren drivers Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris are not sitting still after the Belgian Grand Prix either. The two young talents play a game of Twister together and test their agility.

Jolyon Palmer

Jolyon Palmer analyses the race after every Formula 1 Grand Prix, but now that there is no Formula 1 weekend because of the summer break, he analyses, in his own way of course, another activity.
