It's time for winter break and that means drivers and teams can enjoy a well-deserved holiday. GPblog.com's F1 Social Stint finds out what drivers and teams are doing in preparation for the 2021 Formula One season.

Mercedes in black again?

Probably yes. Mercedes has already indicated that they want to continue with the campaign they started in support of the black population in America. At the time, that was the reason for painting the car black for 2020. Mercedes joked on Twitter that the car will look exactly the same. Given their earlier statements, that may well be the case, or does it have a surprise up its sleeve?

It almost seems as if McLaren can't wait until they can present the car. On Monday, February 15, the new MCL35M will be presented to the public, but until then you have to be patient. Also at McLaren.

And there is Lance Stroll

After Sebastian Vettel's recent visit to the Aston Martin factory in preparation for the new season, Lance Stroll is now also present. He hadn't been spotted anywhere near the factory until today. The Canadian also did some preparatory work today, as can be seen on social media.
