Max Verstappen Names His Favorite F1 Destination—And It’s Not Monaco or Las Vegas

Max Verstappen Unveils the Mindset Behind His Dominance: “I Don’t Feel Like I Have Any Weaknesses and I hate losing”

LAS VEGAS, NEVADA - NOVEMBER 22: Fifth placed qualifier Max Verstappen of the Netherlands and Oracle Red Bull Racing talks to the media in the Paddock during qualifying ahead of the F1 Grand Prix of Las Vegas at Las Vegas Strip Circuit on November 22, 2024 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

As Max Verstappen gears up for the 2025 Formula 1 season, the reigning World Champion has revealed his favorite travel destination from the grueling 24-race calendar—and surprisingly, it’s not the glitz of Monaco or the spectacle of Las Vegas.

Despite having raced across five continents and 21 countries, Verstappen admits that one country stands out above the rest: Japan.

“If we’re talking about a place to visit, I’d definitely go for Japan. Tokyo is a massive city full of cool places, and I’d make time to explore the whole country. Wagyu beef is delicious.”

The Dutchman, known for his relentless focus on racing, rarely has time to explore cities while on the F1 circuit. But when he does, Japan takes the top spot on his list, thanks to its unique culture, sprawling metropolis, and world-class cuisine.

Verstappen’s Love for Italian Food—With a Twist

While Japan tops his list, Verstappen also has a soft spot for another F1 powerhouse—Italy. From Monza to Imola, Italy has played a major role in Verstappen’s career, but it’s not just the racing that he enjoys—it’s the food.

“I really enjoy Italian food, but it depends on my mood.”

The Red Bull ace playfully admitted that his appreciation for pasta and pizza fluctuates based on his mood, though there’s no denying that Italy’s culinary scene has left a lasting impression on him.

Can Verstappen Continue His F1 Dominance in 2025?

With 24 races on the calendar, Verstappen will have plenty of opportunities to enjoy his favorite destinations, but make no mistake—his main focus is still on winning.

As the Dutch superstar prepares to defend his title, Red Bull Racing will need to maintain their edge against an increasingly competitive grid. With his pregnant girlfriend Kelly Piquet by his side, Verstappen may find himself taking a bit more time to soak in the sights—but when the lights go out, it’s all business on track.

With Japan winning Verstappen’s heart, will he be able to conquer Suzuka once again in 2025? Stay tuned.
