Style according to … Victor Sanz: luxury luggage brand Tumi's creative director knows how to travel in style – he shares his favourite hotels in London and Madrid, and must-visit NYC spots
Victor Sanz first joined luggage brand Tumi in 2003, after studying industrial design at the Pratt Institute in New York. After a short break that saw him working for the likes of Tommy Hilfiger , he returned to Tumi in 2009, rising to the post of creative director in 2016. As someone who designs suitcases of all kinds for a living, Sanz knows a thing or two about travelling in style. Here, he shares his favourite finds from his home base of New York , and around the world. What I'm watching Victor Sanz is a fan of the Formula One documentary Drive to Survive, currently in its seventh season. Photo: Netflix Advertisement [Netflix documentary] Drive to Survive has been on my constant watch list. After Tumi became partners with [racing team] McLaren, I became a huge Formula One fan, and I've just loved consuming as much of it as possible. I'm up at all hours of the day and night on Sundays to watch the race and cheer on McLaren, Lando [Norris] and Oscar [Piastri]. The Instagram accounts I can't stop scrolling Victor Sanz follows artists like Kaws, known for pieces such as his Companion figures. Photo: Handout Brian Donnelly (@kaws) , Sebastian Errazuriz (@sebastianstudio) and CJ Hendry (@cj_hendry): I follow a wide community of artists and designers. I love seeing what others in the creative field are up to. My beauty hacks Victor Sanz keeps his daily skincare routine simple, with Rénergie H.C.F. Triple Serum from Lancôme Paris a favourite. Photo: Handout When it comes to my daily routine, I'm pretty simple: I try not to overcomplicate things. For fragrance , I wear Tumi Awaken or Tumi 19 Degree. The two scents fit every occasion while I'm on the move. For skincare, I typically use Rénergie H.C.F. Triple Serum from Lancôme Paris. I work with my hands a lot, so to take care of them: I use The Body Shop Hemp Hand Protector.

Verstappen hoping rule change can propel his title charge
Max Verstappen returns to the scene of his maiden Formula One victory chasing his fourth consecutive Spanish success this weekend with his Red Bull team hoping a rule change will end McLaren's supremacy. The four-time world champion triumphed on his Red Bull debut as a teenager at the Circuit de Catalunya in the 2016 Spanish Grand Prix and will hope another win, his fifth in Spain, will propel him into the thick of the title race. The 27-year-old Dutchman is 25 points adrift of championship leader Oscar Piastri and 22 behind his McLaren team-mate Lando Norris, who their rivals believe could be hampered by the introduction of strict front wing flexibility tests. "It's a significant change," said Red Bull boss Christian Horner of the requirement for much stiffer front wings. "There will be some effect and, of course, the teams have anticipated this so it may well be neutral. Or it may affect tyre degradation. It doesn't make life easier!" McLaren's excellent aerodynamic car, designed to enable their drivers to manage tyre-wear and deliver fast times, may be more hit by the tightening up of the rule than others. "But we don't know how it will affect them," added Horner. Formula One announced the clampdown on so-called 'flexi wings' in January. - 'Game-changer' - The change left the teams with time to prepare and may have a dramatic effect on performance and the outcome of the season. "With 16 races left, there is a long way to go," said Mercedes team boss Toto Wolff. "The team is pushing to find performance and this weekend's updated front wing technical directive will provide another level of intrigue." After a dismal pointless weekend in Monte Carlo, Wolff expects an upturn from his 'silver arrows' drivers George Russell and Kimi Antonelli. Ferrari's Fred Vasseur said: "This can be a game-changer for everybody because we don't know the impact on every team." McLaren have won six out of the eight races this year and sit 172 points clear of Mercedes in the teams' title race, but know the 'mixed' Spanish track, where there are as many slow corners as fast, may be a challenge for their car. But after strong results everywhere this season, except on the high-speed tracks at Suzuka and Imola where Verstappen won for Red Bull, they will be under scrutiny and pressure. As will Ferrari after an inconsistent and mostly disappointing start to the season as seven-time champion Lewis Hamilton continues to seek his first win with the team at a venue where he has won six times – a record he shares with Michael Schumacher. Two Spanish drivers will take part this weekend: Fernando Alonso of Aston Martin, due to start his 410th race at the age of 43, and Carlos Sainz, 30, of Williams, set for his 215th race. Their presence has maintained the sport's relatively-new modern popularity and the growth of big crowds at Spanish Grands Prix. Furthermore, Sainz, born in Madrid, is an ambassador for a future race near the capital, from 2027, while Alonso fulfills a similar role for the Catalan track, which runs out of contract next year – a conflict that enables them to reflect Spain's most classic and enduring sporting rivalry. str/nr
