Max Verstappen has used his time during the F1 off-season to immerse himself in online racing as he streamed his gaming sessions on Twitch and interacted with his fans.

Most of the fans would say that the Formula 1 2023 season break has stretched too long, and they are now exhausted from having to wait for the race weekends to kickstart again in March of this year. Sharing the same sentiments, three-time F1 Champion Max Verstappen has taken to playing the Formula 1 video game and streaming the sessions on Twitch for the fans to see.

During his Twitch sessions, Max Verstappen chats with his co-racers and spills the beans on several facts about his life. Recently, he has talked about how he does not understand the rules of NFL and thus, he does not have a favorite NFL team as such. And these video game sessions have also let the fans get a sneak peek at Penelope, the daughter of Max Verstappen’s girlfriend Kelly Piquet and the ex-F1 racer Daniil Kvyat since the 5-year-old often tries to grab Max’s attention while he is fixated on the racing game.

While F1 racers are mostly busy with their hectic schedules traveling all around the world for the Grands Prix which are held at the most exotic locations, some of them have found respite through music. Lewis Hamilton has lended his vocals for the Christina Aguilera song ‘Pipe’ under the name of XNDA and Charles Leclerc recently announced the release of his own EP. And Max Verstappen seems to be interested to jump on the bandwagon as he belted out the tunes to pop sensation Rihanna’s famous song ‘Diamonds’ at one of his Twitch sessions.

As a three-time Formula 1 racer who is atthe peak of his career right now, Max Verstappen hardly ever has to face failure these days. But the Dutchman was grossly angry and frustrated when he failed to shine at the FIFA video game as he decided to dabble in some football during one of his Twitch sessions.

As it can be guessed, Max Verstappen is a highly competitive person who always likes to go for the win. But, while playing FIFA, the Dutchman had gotten a goal-scoring opportunity but he still could not get the ball into the goalpost. Due to this reason, he banged the table twice in frustration and the video of his very apparent outrage went viral on social media.

In other news, Max Verstappen has aired his wishes for winning a fourth World Championship title recently. The Dutchman is on his way to equal the F1 title count of Sebastian Vettel–the Red Bull maestro who dominated F1 between 2010 and 2013. It remains to be seen if Verstappen emerges as the next Vettel of Red Bull Racing or not.
