In yesterday's Picture of the Day we checked in with the jet-setting Lewis Hamilton, so today in the interests of impartiality and editorial balance we thought we should check in with his team mate and chief title rival Nico Rosberg.

He might not be taking laps around the world in a private jet, but Nico seems to be enjoying himself every bit as much with some quality home time, and playing with his dog Bailey in the back garden.

It's certainly put the smile back on his face, and some relaxation may well do wonders for his morale and performance when battle is rejoined on the track at Spa in a few weeks time.
