Lewis Hamilton might have come under attack recently from former Formula One team bosses such as Flavio Briatore and Sir Jackie Stewart for his 'jetset' lifestyle and his dual focus on music alongside motorsport, but that's clearly not discouraging the 31-year-old from going out and living life to the full.

Naturally few Formula One drivers are rarely content with lying around on the couch during non-Grand Prix weekends, so Hamilton's latest Twitter and Instagram update shows him taking to the waves - and, it seems, to the skies - for his thrill fix before next week's Malaysian Grand Prix.
