2023 F1 Season Prep I Winter Training

another one oh nice hello everyone welcome to the dolomites starting the training camp we already at the top we did the first training this morning it's something that I do every year with with my team this year there's Andrea the legend we please amazing sunglasses still a question the legend who is a friend since a long time we're in the Ferrero Academy together there's a Patrick who is always taking us around here in the dolomites and uh joris that didn't come today because he wasn't feeling well enough to do that that training but it's something I do every year I always enjoy being in Italy and it's obviously the only time of the year where we have a bit of free time and where we can actually push harder to train for the season ahead so uh yeah I hope you all enjoyed the few Mages we'll put together and see you soon foreign [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] vicento Pronto I love this omelette I think we are climbing I can't see a thing they should be fun I'm not having the most fun at the moment it's minus whatever snowing like never before Oh my God let's go ciao [Applause] oh foreign [Applause] was really nice it was incredible it's very cold though now and I can't wait to be back at the hotel but it was really fun [Music] ready ready not yet I still need to wake up still sleeping [Music] training time now we are coming back from Christmas New Year's Eve so a bit more fat than normal it's not too bad actually I haven't been too stupid during the during the holidays but still you treat yourself to some fondue yeah for New Year's Eve and for Christmas all right Clint I didn't do that actually I didn't but a bit less sport than normal but now it's intensive training so it's uh all good foreign [Music] What's Happening Now stretching abdominals do you always stretch afterwards lost my weakness I shall do more but we'll try it start doing it all the time Andrea is the workout the same during the season no as off season this is different you must work a lot so in during the season is not easy because we have a lot of travel so In This Moment is the most important moment for the season and you see a change with the Charles like his mentality or for this coming season yeah change a lot now is a man [Music] when we start is a kid do you agree when we started working together I was 13 years old so I agree I was a kid training Don is the only time of the year where we have quite a lot of time to spend to train the rest of the year is just all over the place so it's basically all about maintaining your physical strength but but that's where you put really the the hours in and that you can actually progress and then it's all about maintaining it throughout the season it was a busy day so now time to relax sleep early and tomorrow morning back at it [Music] good morning it's too early for me but it's okay we are going to drive we're going to have fun not training we should be fun so we are in the middle of the training camp today is a bit of a different day where training is not the most important part it's more about fun and relaxing because uh to just cut in half a little bit the the two weeks where there's a lot of intense training now we are going to do some snow driving so it should be fun [Music] [Music] ah done the car is still intact so it was fun how was it back there oh yeah yeah [Music] one time twice it's not like I'm a pro anything like it but it's okay we'll see how it goes [Music] come on show us how it's done he's gonna fall for sure [Applause] would you consider this part of the camp or is it more fun probably more fun but still active fun so that's what we want but the arms were dead today so uh I haven't been very impressive even though it's not my strength but anyway it's been fun as far as I'm watching hockey it is not my first time but I I don't understand much to be honest I just [Music] [Music] and uh yeah see you uh tomorrow early in the morning [Music] good morning [Music] ah we're ready new spot same thing I quite like catering it's called that way so he tries to it will actually do it twice today as we go to the restaurant tonight by skittering so that should be fun let's go [Music] [Music] the best filling once you finish the training it felt quick today but it's good again beautiful weather I struggled to to speak because I'm cold but apart from that Focus I feel good nice time to go back to the hotel change the skis and go again [Music] [Music] another great morning another one oh nice that looks how tiring the morning was I guess [Music] what's happening are we doing some tests but I'm not sure which test yet it tells you many many things it tells you if you're balanced whether you are stretched enough or not and then we obviously do like a normal fats test which is good after Christmas to just know how much I've been eating but it shouldn't be too bad this year so it's fun foreign [Music] [Music] let's see what comes out of it time to wake up um it's a Non-Stop gym every day for a week like this yes it was a training camp so we tried to squeeze off as much training as possible because then once it's done then the activities of pre-season starts testing quite a lot of media activities to prepare the launch of the new car so not much free time anymore so yeah in a week like this it's basically all day training we try to feed Tom's King also some normal skin which is not part of the training but we're still moving so uh foreign and how do you keep your motivation sure there are some days that I I'm not particularly happy to go training but this life is part of the game at the end winning is what motivates me and uh 2022 we didn't make it but uh I'm planning to do it this year so we need to be as prepared as possible and training is part of it you need to be fit inside the car and we are giving the best just to be the best driver out there on the track so that's what motivates me has your Mentor all changed from last year I think I met you every every season that you do in Formula One you learn new things so you change as a driver whether there's a particular change where I was like okay this I need to change not really it's just small improvements after every mistake you learn and you grow and uh so yeah I'm more mature but there's not been a particular change [Music] we are going ski touring to the restaurant so we burn the calories and then I can eat properly I'm still gonna do the diet but at least I burned some calories and it's funny something different I've never done it by night so gold push [Music] [Music] [Laughter] success it's done what's cool it was really cool we couldn't see much but with the little we saw this was really nice the temperature is perfect but now I just can't wait to eat so guys training camp is over here uh in salvadi valgarena it's been incredible loads of fun moments but a lot of our training as well which is needed 2022 has been a great year but not good enough and we have been training like never before to try and be as ready as possible for the 2023 season I can't wait already to be back in the car not too many days left so that's great and yeah thank you for your support and I hope 2023 will be uh will be our yeah see you soon on track

Charles’ face when he looked at himself in his phone and the way he said ‘oh dear’ was so funny - seriously think his sense of humour is so underrated and easily missed. He cracks me up. Glad to see Antonio Fuoco in this as well! Loved watching him and Charles in the Prema vids.

How many active drivers have been injured throughout the years, to justify the number of comments that are always so negative in posts about winter sports/activities? Or are you all basing your "hell nos" on Michael (who was way older than Charles etc at the unfortunate moment)?

What is it with motor sports drivers and the snow..

Ghost of Sonny Bono: Hold up there, Charles. Might want to snowshoe instead!

Does anyone know what song he was listening to in the car at 5:49? I think it's a Coldplay song but not 100% sure and it's been driving me mad!
