It really shows how much under pressure he was at Mercedes. I hope he stays until Alfa becomes Audi and got into a title fight for one or couple of seasons before retiring.

The expectations performance wise and a legendary teammate with insane consistency is an insane combination to live up to. It's good to see how much more relaxed he is now.

He seems like a truly genuine person that's well rounded vs solely focused on the drive. I'm glad he's with a team that allows him to explore and actually live. We all just refer to this as work/life balance, why shouldn't the drivers get that too?

He's turned into a real business man. His businesses are more successful than his F1 career. Of course he also makes great F1 merchandise sales I'm sure.

Glad to see he's happy and doing well. He's a nice guy. But like so many before him, he'll never be champion, but just one of the many generic F1 drivers that come and go over time....

Other than the pressure at merc want her also going through personal stuff with his now ex-wife?

Having a happy personal life helps a lot, we saw the same with Lewis during his Mclaren years.
