Lewis Hamilton was seen enjoying a round of golf with fellow Formula 1 driver Lando Norris, just days on from their underwhelming performances at the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix.
Hamilton's frustrations with his Mercedes car continued in Jeddah, as the Englishman battled his way to a fifth place finish, 31 seconds behind winner Sergio Perez. Things were even worse for Norris, as a frustrating evening saw him end the race in 18th.
The pair were both keen to put their Saudi Arabian troubles behind them, and in an effort to do so they swapped their spots from behind the wheel to jumping on the tee on the golf course.
Hamilton shared a selfie of himself and Norris out on the golf course to his 32 million followers on Instagram on Wednesday. Norris is known to be a keen golfer with his handicap said to be around the 13-mark. The Englishman has played in a number of pro-am events, as well as also playing alongside LIV Golf star Ian Poulter.
Speaking about his love for the game last July, he told Golf Digest: "I’m fully addicted, like I can’t describe how addicted I am to golf. I watch it every weekend. I’m looking at the scores. I’m watching the live streams. The golf bug has really bit me hard, but it’s really enjoyable.”
And now it seems he has got Hamilton into the sport, after teeing it up alongside the 23-year-old. As well as his on the tee selfie, Hamilton also uploaded a video of his swing, as he looked to pierce a drive down the fairway.
The post certainly caught the eye of the seven-time world champion's followers. Lauding praise on Hamilton, one fan - @oner3shi - commented: "You drive like a champ," whilst @riannenmgn added: "Is there anything you can't do?"
