Check out what Formula One drivers have been up to during their winter break, as F1i flicks through their holiday photo albums.
With pre-season testing not scheduled before late February, pilots took the opportunity to enjoy some well-deserved down time after a gruelling 21-race season in 2016.

With 2017 set to feature faster and more physically-demanding cars, they also made sure to work out in order to show up in top shape when the season gets under way in Melbourne on March 26.
