Max Verstappen, the current Formula 1 champion, is well-known in the racing community for his passion for padel, a sport off the tracks. Despite his recent victory in Montreal, Verstappen has been keeping busy with various activities, including playing padel. This high-speed sport requires agility and quick reflexes, which Verstappen takes full advantage of. In fact, he has been seen playing padel with other F1 drivers in the past, creating a huge buzz online.
In a widely circulated video, Verstappen can be seen fully focused and sweating under the sun while playing padel. These activities are part of his regular routine to stay fit and sharp for the upcoming Grand Prix weekends. Meanwhile, the former Le Mans team boss criticized Sergio Perez, Verstappen’s teammate, for his poor performance. Despite being with the team since 2021, Perez has only accumulated 107 points in the Drivers’ Championship so far. As Verstappen continues to dominate the races, it is crucial for Perez to step up his game starting from the Barcelona race to avoid further scrutiny in the future.
