Max Verstappen won his fourth world title in Las Vegas. There seems no better place on the F1 calendar to celebrate than in this American city. So the Dutchman was quick to crack open the beer after the race.

Immediately after the Grand Prix, Verstappen already indicated that he was thirsty. The Dutchman did not wait long to start drinking. He drank his first beer in front of all the TV cameras when speaking to the press.

Verstappen already starts partying in Las Vegas

He walked in to the press conference with a beer. The Red Bull Racing driver was asked how he will celebrate his fourth title. "Well, I ran out of beer, so… I don't know," Verstappen said.

Given that the Grand Prix is over, the celebrations can begin for Verstappen. He does not have to drive again and referred to his advertising for Heineken. "I don't know, maybe another one and then maybe I switch to something else. I don't need to drive anymore. The slogan don't drink and drive works very well. I don't need to do that anymore," the Dutchman said.
