Watch F1 drivers Lewis Hamilton and George Russell toy around at the AMG Playground

There are 23 Formula 1 races scheduled for the 2023 season, this weekend's tilt is the 16th and takes place in Singapore. No need to wait until the weekend for warm-ups, though, as drivers new and old are doing racy things in cars for our enjoyment right now.

First, there are Mercedes-AMG Petronas drivers Lewis Hamilton and George Russell cavorting on the AMG "Playground" in a quintet of of AMG models. Eating their dessert first, they weave a pair of AMG Ones through a slalom course, one of the drivers apparently left out of the e-mail chain explaining one isn't supposed to hit the cones.

Then comes the drift challenge, Russell in a C 63 S E Performance, Hamilton in the new AMG GT. Hamilton provided the relevant preview when he told Russell, "Good luck with the four-wheel drive, mate."
