Hola, bienvenido a la Fasta Necurious Gold Gold,
siempre crees en ti.
Buenas.
Vámonos a ir.
Los nostros florecieron cuando lo hicieron.
No he visto eso.
No he visto eso.
No tengo los nostros florecieron, no soy uno de ellos,
pero deben ser vivos durante eso.
Hola y bienvenido a la Fasta Necurious Gold.
Esta es una celebración de,
yo creo que es Betty's nostros,
esta es una celebración de algunos de nuestros mejores bites.
Para las últimas dos semanas, soy Christian Heugiel,
esta es Betty, la clave de los nostros.
The Betty, la clave de los nostros.
No he sido llamada por mucho tiempo.
Esta es una colección de algunos de nuestros momentos favoritos,
entrevistando, posiblemente,
el mejor vehículo en el grado.
¿Quién es el mejor vehículo en el grado?
No, no es posible.
Él es el mejor vehículo informal.
Es uno de los mejores que he hecho.
¡Vamos a llamar a Spade a Spade!
Yo sé, yo sé, él es muy, muy bueno.
Ahora, estas no son en visión,
no vas a ver las fotos aquí porque no filmamos.
Bueno, bueno, ¡hagámoslo!
Entonces, uno de ellos lo hicimos,
y ha sido tan longa, es genuinely cierto,
uno de ellos lo hicimos y los filos se corrupieron.
Así que, perdón, la tecnología.
Uno de ellos no lo hicimos porque hablamos de él en alguna parte
que no tuvimos el visual correcto.
Por suerte, si estás viendo en YouTube,
es solo audio, pero eso es bien,
es su vida.
Pero estos, no hemos podido hablar
con Max en 2025, por suerte.
Entonces, estos son de 23 y 24,
y el podcast fue mucho más pequeño.
Entonces, esto no ha sido visto y escuchado
por un montón de personas.
Ahora, el primero, Betty,
fue cuando, de nuevo,
only just started the podcast.
¿Puedes recordar...
¿Puedes recordar por mí?
En una buena manera, en una buena manera,
pero ¿puedes recordar por mí?
Sí, porque tú had some merch behind you.
Entonces, tú used to do the pod
to have all this, like, F1
clobber behind you.
My old, old flat.
And I had, behind...
It was like, it was a bad podcast set up.
But, like, I basically had
a little clothes rail in the spare room.
We used to keep stuff, like, bundled desk in the corner.
And I had a Max Verstappen signed cap,
which I still own this day,
and a Mercedes t-shirt.
And he ignored the cap completely
and bothered me for having the Mercedes t-shirt.
I was like, what's that?
The audacity to be speaking to Max Verstappen
with a bloody Mercedes t-shirt in the background.
It's because I'm a baller, isn't it?
You deserved every little bit of hate
that you got from Max Verstappen.
I also remember asking him
if he ever got bored of winning.
Fair question in 2023.
That was when that interview was.
And then I interviewed him in Miami.
And I won't lie to you.
I...
So much of this podcast has gone by in a blur.
I can't remember what we spoke about
for the life of me.
So the listening to this will be new for me as well.
But on track,
I think, you know...
Not bad, is it?
Well, I think this might have been...
Well, it's not more impressive, is it?
Because what he does is...
Like, it's no...
Even though he didn't win the title this year,
his season was no less impressive
than the seasons when he has.
Do you know what I mean?
It's just ridiculous.
He's just...
He is one of the best to have ever done it.
And in the part of Ken Abu Dhabi,
I was talking to...
Right, F1 Geeks.
You'll know this name.
Talking to a man called James Allen.
James has worked in Formula One for decades.
And then when the legendary
Formula One commentator, Murray Walker,
this is before your time watching better,
but you know all the old clips he's given.
And it's go, go!
Yeah, I know Murray Walker is, thank you very much.
Not everyone listens to this will.
Not everyone will.
James took over from Murray and commentated
quite ITV.
So what I'm saying is he's been
across Formula One for decades.
And he's seen
Prosts, Senna, Schumacher.
And I said to him, I was like,
I just don't think you can compare.
And he was like, I think you can.
I think you can compare.
James said the driver's sort of post-80s.
I think you can compare them all.
And I said to him, I was like,
so do you agree with me?
Do you think Max is like right up there?
And he went, yeah.
He's like, Max and Lewis are right up there.
So we...
It's all very well said that.
We're obviously a bit younger than James.
I'm sure James won't mind me saying it.
But when people have been in the paddock
and seen all these people come and go,
they've stood there and seen Senna's and Prosts
and people and Schumacher's come and go.
And now they're seeing Max.
And even there, people like James are going,
he's generational.
He's like an all-time great.
I just, I'm in awe of the man.
Yeah, he is fantastic.
But I think the thing about this season,
this season has been really, really special
for Max Verstappen.
And I know he didn't win.
I know he was two points away from Lando in the end.
But I think this season,
so many people have got on board
that Max Verstappen fan bus.
Just because of the way that he's been this season,
the way that he's driven,
the way that he's sort of been an underdog,
the way that, you know, he clawed back
104 points at one point
or nearly clawed it back.
He has just been special
and the way that he's just dealt with this season,
I think a lot more people
are a fan of him now.
A lot of people that didn't like him
are now big fans of Max Verstappen
because of the way this season panned out.
So you could argue this has been one of his
most successful seasons in a way
just because of the reaction that he's had.
Oh, he's certainly gained new fans.
And I've always enjoyed his honesty.
People have sometimes struggled with his honesty,
but it's like this season people have gone,
oh yeah, I really enjoy Max being honest, yeah.
Amazing.
Right, these are some of the best moments
of Max Verstappen on The Fast and the Curious.
May 2023.
Hey Max, how are you?
Yeah, not too bad.
I don't like your jacket in the background.
Oh that.
I'm just, I'm kidding, I'm kidding.
So behind me there is a McLaren t-shirt,
an Alpine cap,
a Max Verstappen cap signed by Max
and a Mercedes jacket.
But you've signed that one to be fair.
That one is good, yeah, I agree.
And that's hand signed by you they tell me.
So you've held this cap.
I have, I've done many more things with that cap.
Oh, brilliant.
I love how that's the first thing
that you spot as well Max, straight away.
You're spotting the top behind.
It's in the corner of my eye, can't get rid of it now.
It's an equal opportunity display.
Yeah, one is a bit more beautiful than the other.
Why do you love Formula One so much?
Oh, well I think, you know, racing runs in the family,
but most importantly they never pushed me into that direction.
It was just that, you know, my dad back in the day
of course was racing in a van but he had his own go-kart team.
And from when I was a little kid I was always like
running around on my bicycle even, you know, cycling around
and seeing everyone race.
And, yeah, at one point, you know, you get,
I got to, I think it was four, four and a half at the time.
And I saw like a kid driving at the go-kart track.
He was like a year younger than me.
So I called my dad at the time.
He was, I think he was a monstruo, I think for a van.
I said dad, I also want to start driving, you know.
I saw a kid even younger than me.
And yeah, I want to, I want to start.
He initially said no.
Yeah, like I want you to wait a little bit
and see how he goes, if he enjoys it or whatever.
And that's how I started.
And then of course we went on to what we're doing now.
But the funny thing is as well, the kid,
you know, who actually made me start driving.
He's like my best friend like now.
We basically grew up throughout our careers.
We got like, we had a go-karting team together
and he is still running his go-karting team now
as well.
So yeah, it's quite a funny story.
Yeah.
So, yeah.
So, yeah.
He's got a go-karting team now
as well.
So, yeah, it's quite funny story.
I've obviously seen so many of the pictures
of you as a little boy running around the paddock
and meeting all the big names.
Porque obviamente, for those new to F1, Max's dad,
Yosfer Stapham, was a driver in F1 the 90s.
Max does it ever feel weird?
Because, obviously we see you as, you know,
you are Mr. F1.
You're the double world champion.
You are one of the biggest games the sports ever had.
Cuando empezé a viajar, nunca he hablado de lo que estoy haciendo ahora.
Por supuesto, a un punto en el que esperabas que llegas a Formulano y trabajas por eso,
pero nunca me imaginaba que quería dos títulos, los racistas de la mano y todo.
Así que esto es algo que nunca he oído.
Y eso es lo que probablemente...
Cuando volví de vuelta, por supuesto,
cuando volví de vuelta a todas las historias y todas las cosas que he oído durante mis años y años,
pero, por supuesto, ahora es más que bueno.
¿Es que nunca...
No sé cómo poner esto sin ser blanco,
pero has dicho que te gusta preguntar a las preguntas de Blunt,
así que lo haré.
Max, ¿tienes que ir al borde de ganar? ¿Es posible?
No, no.
Nunca he ido al borde de ganar.
No, no.
No, no.
Nunca he ido al borde de ganar.
Eso, por supuesto, no.
Es mucho menos si es de la otra manera.
Por supuesto, donde te pones todo en el que puedes
y que nunca tengas un buen resultado.
No, es bueno.
Por supuesto, algunos son un poco más satisfacientes que otros,
como los racistas.
Cuando realmente tienes que trabajar hard for it
y que ganas,
puede dar un poco de sensación diferente en los sentimientos,
pero es donde quieres ser.
Es lo que necesitamos y working for it
para fue un tiempo más largo,
con el equipo para ir al borde de ganar.
¿Pero, como racista
y te gusta importante una batalla,
más competitividad,
¿más por ser más cerca
o estás muy feliz de dominar este año?
He hecho el otro de ellos,
tener un décimo de las escalas
y un poco más de las escalas de dominar.
Me musteré que el décimo de dominar.
Pero también me gusta los escalas.
Es solo un par de años dominantes, y luego un poco más cerca.
Creo que eso es bien. No voy a judging.
No, me gusta mucho esto, es que va muy bien, gracias a lo que me gusta mucho.
Sabes que tienes el mejor carro.
Eso es lo que trabajas con el equipo para lograr algo así.
Y, por supuesto, a veces puede ser un poco, digamos,
estupido de la izquierda, pero para nosotros,
todavía cada semana, cada día,
tienes que performar a nivel más alto,
y tienes que extranjer todo de eso.
Así que, en realidad, no es tan estupido.
¿Quién te distrae de la ruta? Si tuvieras una semana, ¿qué harías?
Probablemente, también estaré un poco de mi simulator en casa,
pero, además, de pasar tiempo con familia y amigos,
honestamente, estás viajando mucho,
que es bueno cogerlos con ellos,
y disfrutar un momento y, en realidad,
cambiar un poco de la ruta de la mundo de F1, también.
Trabajar a pensar en algo, y...
Debo cambiar de la mundo de F1
por hacer una simulación de la mundo de F1,
y eso es por eso que estás en F1.
Más de la vez, en mi simulator,
estoy viajando a otros carros de F1.
Trabajamos a un simulator,
que debe haber sido como un mes o algo,
y, honestamente, después de una hora y medio,
no podía verlo bien,
tenía una mala ruta.
¿Cómo lo haces?
Porque, probablemente,
tendrías un poco de fokus,
un poco de estrés,
y creo que lo he hecho por hace muchos años.
Así que, también,
puedes viajar un poco mejor.
Hay algunas cosas para viajar,
pero, a más de la vez, estas cosas suceden cuando
estás en la copia de 2x10.
Tengo muy 10x10, porque he spentado
más de la hora en las puertas,
y eso fue un estrés y estrés
para la ocasión, ¿no, Cristian?
También tienes un poco de brazo,
lo que imagino Max, no es ideal.
Eso es muy importante, es muy importante.
Sí, lo aprendimos, Max,
fue una cosa que hablamos de la experiencia.
Puedes preguntar, ¿cuál era la acceleración,
y cuál era el brazo al inicio, ¿no?
¿Sabes qué? No estás pintando a mí en una gran foto
en frente de Max, Cristian,
voy a ser honesto, él va a pensar que soy un
estrés de brazo.
May, 2024.
Max Verstappen, bienvenido a
The Fast and the Curious.
Sí, gracias.
Es loco de volverte, la última vez que
estuviste en este podcast,
te amasabaste a nuestros escuchadores
por tomar el mickey de mí,
y me dijeron que me había dado Max Verstappen
para que se vea que no hay
otro equipo de otro equipo aquí.
Espero que te aprecien el esfuerzo que hemos hecho.
Sí, es bueno.
Tienes que venir con un pepsi, pero eso es bueno.
Oh, no, he hecho otra era roquilla.
He hecho otra era roquilla.
He just rushed over from having lunch,
sorry.
Tienes un red bull on the go,
que te has grabado un red bull
¿cuánto es tu...
Esto es un adverto para eBay.
Oh, chicos, ¿no piensas que car-buying
ha sido una experiencia muy rica?
Yo personalmente no puedo pensar en algo menos
interesante, pero en eBay,
detrás de cada carro y parte,
es una historia esperada a ser compartida.
Como este hombre que he escrito sobre,
que trae el 2020 Porsche Cayman GT4
en eBay.
Era...
bien enamorado.
O sea, hay mucho de Cayman
en gran condición en eBay,
pero este hombre
necesitaba mucho trabajo.
Entonces, después de este hombre
con todas estas partes que he encontrado
en eBay.
Performancias,
suspensión,
paneles de cuerpo,
los trabajos absolutos.
La siguiente cosa,
este caballero de Cayman
fue ahí abajo en el tren
como un car-buyero
de rastro.
Estás listo para ir,
car-buyero,
tu siguiente modo de rastro.
Eso significa
restauración y modificación,
si no lo sabéis.
eBay tiene mil caras
y es la mayor selección de
vehículos y accesorios.
eBay,
cosas,
car-buyero.
¿Estás notando
tu rastro de car-buyero
incluso sin
ciencias o acciones?
Estás no solo.
Eso es por eso que hay Jerry.
Tu asistente pro-activa
de rastro.

Availability and coverage

How much do you go through?
To be honest with you
when I'm at home
not so much
but
things like today
because
you're walking around
quite a bit
I don't mind
having
three of them maybe.
Three of them
I would be bouncing
off the walls.
Whenever I visit
your guys base
in Milton Keynes
you guys look after us
so well
with really nice coffee
and fridges of them
everywhere.
I come away physically shake
have you become accustomed
I guess so.
I already
like before I even signed
to Red Bull
I used to have like
one or two here and there
you know whenever
or traveling with my dad
in the van
you know when you had
like long nights
to cover
but then of course
once you sign with them
it's for free
so you can
you can take as much
as you want really.
Is that the best thing
about being a Formula One
driver free Red Bull?
It helps.
It helps.
You said to me
when you won your
first world title
that you weren't necessarily
fussed about chasing records
about going for 7, 8, 9
has that
has that changed at all
with all the speculation
about the future of the sport
and people moving round
do you still see yourself
part of this sport long term
now you've won
1, 2, 3
do you want to go for more?
I mean I don't know
what long term means
for you
how many years is that?
10 years?
I know you've said
you're not going to be around
as long as Fernando is
so I mean
do you think
do you see yourself
en F1 in 10 years?
No.
That's interesting.
No.
Why do you think
you'll do it for less time
than people we see
Nico Hockenberg,
Luis Hamilton,
Fernando Alonso?
I just want to also do
other things in life.
You know I've basically
been living over
over fixed schedule
since I was like
12 I would say
like fully internationally
and you know
you knew exactly
how your year
more or less was going to look
like we're going to be
every single week or not.
I do love racing a lot
I do love Formula 1
but I do think
that at one point
for me it's enough
and that then comes
also back to like
I don't need to win
eight titles
like I'm already
really happy with what
I have done so far
which is something
you know
that I've never thought
I never thought
was possible anyway
in the first place
so I exceeded that
by far
and yeah
I just want
a bit more peace
a bit more quiet
I spend more time
with my friends
and family
and not when I'm 50
you know
a bit more in my prime
when I'm still able
to do all the fun things
and live life
you know
because we only here once
that's why
I believe
and yeah
I don't want to spend
at least half of that
racing
racing cars
24 times a year
As a driver
how much of the sort
of politics, the drama
or the gossip
do you consume
fascinates me about
because not many sports
have as much gossip
as this one does
yeah
I mean everyone is different in that
I think I'm pretty
relaxed
I know what I want
and that's of course
the fast car
the fast team
that's where I am at the moment
of course it's very important
always to have a good environment
which I think we have
at the moment
but
with the gossip
like I don't
I have no time for it also
like when I'm at home
I don't want to know
anything about Formula One
unless it's
unless it's
you know
related to my team
that's what I discuss
but
I really also value my
my private time
so I prefer not to
see anything
like I don't really follow
a lot of
F1 related things
it's more like football
modigipi
just things that interest me
and I've heard of sports people
in the past having like
secret
instagram and tiktok
accounts and things like
it doesn't strike me
you'd be anywhere near that
no I prefer than not to
you know
look at it
and yeah make up
like I don't like to be
involved with you know
the stories and stuff
very quickly before you go
because you're a busy man
and we asked our listeners
for their favourites
Max Verstappen memes
I don't know how many
you see of these on social media
I'm guessing not many
I really enjoy this one
there's F1 rookies
finally an F1
can't wait to get my first win
and it's just you
holding a flag
in front of them
do you ever see any of these
there's another one
point of view
Google Maps says you
10 minutes to get there
and you get there in 9
and it's your face
these must be fun
to see occasionally
how do you see these
I mean some of my
my friends
they
they sometimes send me
like links or whatever
that one as well
Max apparently
you explain things to Charles a lot
I don't know
I like to explain with my hands
you know when people ask me stuff
yeah
what you're doing is truly special
it's so special to watch
and I hope you're enjoying it
as much as we are watching it
so thanks for taking the time Max

About this episode
Max Verstappen shares insights into his passion for racing, his journey from karting to F1, and his perspective on competition and career longevity. The hosts reflect on Verstappen's impressive 2023 and 2024 seasons, highlighting his resilience and growing fanbase. Verstappen discusses balancing intense racing with personal life, his relaxed approach to F1 drama, and his plans to eventually step away from the sport to enjoy life beyond racing. The episode also features memorable moments and fan interactions, showcasing Verstappen's candid and honest personality.
Original notes
In the 2025 season Max Verstappen managed to prove to everyone just how good a driver he really is. The four-time champion just missed out on what would have been an incredible end of season comeback to snatch the drivers' title from underneath a papaya nose.
Christian and Betty dissect his ability, and take you through the highlights of the two chats that we have had in our time.
Each week on the Fast And The Curious GOLD, we bring you the best chats over our three seasons with all the biggest drivers and names from the sport, shining a light on some of those top moments that you may have missed.
