What's next? Podcast by Valtteri Bottas & Paul Ripke

What’s next? It’s race week in Melbourne 🇦🇺
Valtteri and Paul are sitting right in front of an elevator - recording this episode with their brand-new microphones. They talk about why Valtteri avoids doing laundry at the hotel, a short guest appearance on the podcast, and how the most expensive coffee in the world tastes. Also: the story of how Paul accidentally saved Valtteri’s anti-doping test.

What’s next? Welcome from Bahrain straight after a game of padel - Valtteri and Paul answering the questions the what’s nexties sent in after the last episode. They dive into the backstory of Paultteri, talk about how many countries they’ve actually visited along the way, and somehow even end up discussing what Keanu Reeves has to do with all of it.

What’s next? This time from a car in Bahrain during Formula 1 testing week. Paul just celebrated his birthday in full Dad Mode, while Valtteri was in the UAE supporting Tiffany before heading to Bahrain. Along the way, Valtteri shares his Soul Theory while traveling and what really happened during his last five-hour layover at LAX. Also, Paul reflects on his very first true What’s next? moment as a child.

What’s next? Paul and Valtteri are on opposite sides of the world right now, but at least finding a time to connect is easy. In this episode, we try to make sense of Valtteri’s travel schedule over the last six days (and ask ourselves what aliens would think watching it from above). What actually happened to his bike along the way? And what’s going on with the VB77 World Tour T-shirt?

What's next? And what happens when your social battery hits zero? In this episode, we talk about being socially drained, needing a hard reset, and why alone time can be just as important as being around people. From life on the road in F1 and cycling races in Australia to campervan evenings, long flights, espresso standards and mistaken TV interviews with a Valtteri look-alike.
