George Russell Monaco 2021 PA
Seeing as it’s a Sunday without Formula 1 to enjoy, we thought we’d take a look back at social media and find our favourite posts from the week just gone, and here’s what we found…

To be fair, this will have been a harder task than doing a World’s Strongest Man-style farmers’ walk when trying to carry too much shopping into the house in one go. (Not speaking from experience there at all).
