Kada Sárközi joined GPblog as an editor ahead of the 2023 Formula 1 season. He graduated with a BA in Sports Journalism in the UK and has covered Grands Prix and other F1 events live.

Like Max Verstappen, who was competing at the Nordschleife on Saturday, Lewis Hamilton also used the one-week break between the Chinese and Japanese Grands Prix to do what he is passionate about.

This week, Ferrari Style opened its flagship store in London, where Hamilton was present.

The British driver is coming off a successful weekend after he claimed his first Grand Prix podium with Ferrari in Shanghai, and 'F1', co-produced by the seven-time world champion, won an Oscar at the 98th Academy Awards as well.

On social media, he wrote: "In custom Ferrari Style at their new boutique in London. Congrats to Rocco Iannone everyone involved in the opening. Great night, great vibe."
