The triple World Champion Max Verstappen pinpointed his best two Grand Prix Races of the dominant 2023 season.

Red Bull Racing driver Max Verstappen finished last 41 races in points and won 33 of them. The last time the Dutchman didn't finish the race inside the points was retirement at the Australian Grand Prix 2022.

The triple World Champion has been winning so much in the course of the last two seasons that his Dutch fans got used to him winning, as van der Garde mentioned.

Verstappen won 19 out of 22 races in 2023 and completed the most dominant season ever. Asked to pick the best races, it wasn't easy for the Dutchman, but he told motorsport.com:

"I think Spa was still a very strong weekend again. Probably Japan was very strong one – from lap one it was unbelievable to drive."
