At the start of the season, we heard Max Verstappen complain a lot about a full Formula 1 calendar. One disadvantage of a 24-race race calendar is that there is less time for holidays. What does the Red Bull driver actually do on his holidays? The two-time world champion talks about his activities during such periods.

"One of my last holidays with one of my best friends, I think we were just heading a ball in the water for just two hours straight. That's the only thing we were doing, and I just loved it," Verstappen said of his leisure activities in an interview with Channel 4 Sport. " We were able to keep the ball up a total of 34 times," the Red Bull driver added.

For him, Verstappen's life does not just consist of racing. "When we have holidays, I like to spend with my family, but also close friends, and I like to have good times together where you don't talk too much about racing, but just life and just have a good time," the 25-year-old Verstappen said.

Earlier, Verstappen talked about racing in the RB19. His motivation was mainly to drive even further away from his competitors. It seems only a matter of time before Verstappen captures his third world title in a row.
