Max Verstappen has revealed plans to open a personal museum featuring his racing memorabilia and the Formula 1 cars he has driven during his career, following Fernando Alonso's lead.
Despite being just 28 years old, the Dutchman already boasts an impressive trophy collection that has cemented his place among the most successful drivers in Formula 1 history, and that silverware is only expected to grow in the years to come.
Speaking to Formule 1 Magazine, Verstappen admitted that opening a museum is something he would like to do in the future. Inspired by Alonso's example in Spain, he envisions a venue displaying the Formula 1 cars from his career that could also motivate the next generation of aspiring drivers.
"I’m thinking about where it should be. I would like something like that eventually. Fernando Alonso has that in Spain too. I think it’s very nice. With all the cars, all the Formula 1 cars. Maybe it’s a source of inspiration and motivation for young children."

Verstappen urged to remain at Red Bull despite key departures

As the Formula 1 driver market enters one of its busiest periods of the season, Juan Pablo Montoya believes Verstappen remains fully committed to Red Bull. The former Formula 1 driver argued that, despite the team losing several key figures who helped build its success in recent years, he still sees Red Bull as one of the strongest outfits on the grid.
Speaking to F1.com, Montoya believes Verstappen wants the team to show it can continue fighting at the front, with the Dutchman focused on pushing Red Bull to deliver rather than looking for an opportunity elsewhere.
“I don’t think Max wants to leave Red Bull. You’re in one of the best F1 teams, probably the best team in the last 20 years, with Mercedes. You’re in the right place. Yes, it’s changed because a lot of people have left, but they’re still performing. Last year, they nearly came back and won the championship. I think he wants to see that from the team, and it’s just about putting pressure on them.”
