Lewis Hamilton has gone on holiday with his brother. Hamilton has been busy telling stories of how his family are reuniting more often and how that's helped his performances on the track. Sounds like he's getting his "positive" feelings and inspiration from this.

The summer break gives me time to try some new sports. @ziggo challenged @ruudgullit and me to a re-match. We had a lot fun making it, I hope you guys enjoy it!

How's your swing? Max Verstappen has been very busy and active! Part of this is some media work with Ziggo Sport, but Verstappen has clearly enjoyed himself trying out golf, running and basketball.
