F1 News, Reports and Race Results

What have F1 drivers been up to during the summer break?

Formula One drivers may have been away from their cars since last month’s German Grand Prix, but that does not mean they stayed inactive during the summer break.

From attending the Olympic Games in Rio to jogging at the beach, to… planking and diving at the same time (not sure what happened there Fernando?), most F1 racers have made sure to keep their fans updated on their whereabouts.

Before they all kick start the second part of the season at this weekend’s Belgian Grand Prix, F1i has put together a gallery of what the drivers have been sharing on social media of their summer breaks.
