People could see the depth of our relationship and the sheer joy we share together
"So obviously this makes it hard for us. But having Nicole there at the weekend was special.
"People could see the depth of our relationship and the sheer joy we share together."
He continued: "Her job is shifting all the time, whether it’s X Factor or (US TV series) Dancing With The Stars or Cats or music. Juggling your schedule to meet with the other is very hard, and it’s a long year with F1.
"At one point I flew to Asia for five weeks and couldn’t see her. It’s been tough."

Lewis and Nicole reignited their romance in March this year, but they're still not sure what the future holds when it comes to getting married and starting a family.
"It’s not something we’re thinking about currently," Lewis told the newspaper.
"She’s about to start Cats and I’m just enjoying the emotion and experience of winning this championship but that’s something that will happen naturally.
"The travelling thing is definitely hard. I wouldn’t want to take my kid out of school, for example, every race. How you juggle that?
"When I have kids I want to be there for them and enjoy that with them."
