It's no secret that Formula One drivers must undergo an intense training regime to stay fit and cope with the G-forces their bodies have to endure in the car. Carlos Sainz gives a behind-the-scenes look at his training ahead of the 2022 season.

Sainz shares behind-the-scenes look at tough training session

His first training day of the preseason begins at 8:00 am with laps in the pool. Sainz likes to start his day with an early swim session. "It puts you in a good mood for the rest of the day," explains the Ferrari driver.

Besides swimming, the 27-year-old Spaniard faces a tough day. Two swim sessions, three runs, an exercise test and three strength training sessions is just part of Sainz's training routine. In addition to his training, he also shares his "fitness breakfast," which is obviously very high in protein.
