Jimmy Fallon suffered a couple of embarrassing moments at the Miami Grand Prix last weekend, including with Max Verstappen
Four-time F1 world champion Max Verstappen expressed dissatisfaction with an interview conducted by US comedian Jimmy Fallon at the Miami Grand Prix, showcasing his aversion to interviews.

Verstappen humorously referenced stopping the interview, generating laughter within Fallon’s studio. These instances highlight a pattern of Verstappen’s strained relationship with interviews throughout 2026, including ejecting a journalist at the Japanese Grand Prix and challenging a journalist’s commentary at the Miami GP despite an improved performance by Red Bull. Observers, like Sky Sports F1’s Ted Kravitz, speculate on potential shifts in Verstappen’s interview demeanor following Red Bull’s progress in resolving technical challenges.
