Max Verstappen is known for his straightforward and no-nonsense behavior. With this, the Red Bull driver is often mistaken as a personality who is rude and harsh. However, that’s not true as there’s a different side to the two-time world champion.

Max Verstappen does party with his friends! Yes, you read it right. One might get accustomed to the super competitive Verstappen on track, but that doesn’t mean he can be super cool at times. The Dutch driver also shared how he wants to accomplish things after he retires from F1.

Talking about this, Verstappen conveyed during an interview with Dutch media Ziggo Sport, “After Formula 1, I want to look back, and ask myself: Did I enjoy life, instead of riding in circles? Then I want to answer, yes, I enjoyed my life.”

The Red Bull star, worth $60 million, further asserted, “You can have fun with the life you have, but I like to have fun with my friends, that’s what I enjoy way more. A holiday in Ibiza is super fun, being crazy, only a little crazy. Those are memories that last forever.” [Translated from Dutch]

Max Verstappen parties with Lando Norris to celebrate his title win

Recently, Red Bull driver Max Verstappen was seen with McLaren driver Lando Norris after the Japanese Grand Prix celebrating his world title win. The duo was seen near the DJ deck at a lavish party in Monaco. Verstappen, who lives in the posh city, celebrated his back-to-back F1 championship in style.

A video that surfaced on the internet after the Japan race showed Norris taking the role of the DJ, while Verstappen was there to support him. Despite strong contests on track, both Lando Norris and Max Verstappen share an amicable relationship between them.

The 25-year-old driver picked up his second F1 world title in two successive years after winning the rain-shortened race in Japan. As Charles Leclerc’s penalty for cutting a corner and gaining an advantage demoted him from P2 to P3, Verstappen got a points lead good enough to make him the 2022 F1 world champion with four races to go.
