The beginning of the second half of the season is approaching and that means that the summer break in Formula 1 is coming to an end. All drivers will get back into their simulators this week to prepare for the Belgian Grand Prix, held at the iconic Spa-Francorchamps circuit. But what did the F1 drivers do during the final few days of their break to be fully rested for the restart this weekend?

Jet-skiing in full swing for Verstappen

Max Verstappen took it easy and just like every holiday, he hit the accelerator of the jet ski near his hometown Monaco. It resulted in some very nice pictures.

Bottas runs

Valtteri Bottas wasn't sitting still either this weekend. He took part in a duathlon organised by himself, a race in which you have to run, cycle and finally run again. The Finn set a personal record.

Russell in the karts

George Russell is now in his third season in Formula 1, but he still knows very well where he came from and that is the karts. The Williams driver stepped into the kart again to see if he was as fast as he used to be.
