Valtteri Bottas is known for a lot of things, and among them, his love for coffee is the most iconic. Bottas and Coffee has always been a great match, so much so that even McLaren driver Lando Norris has now made an impressive admission over the coffee-obsessed Alfa Romeo driver.

Norris made a cheeky comment about the former Mercedes driver and his addiction to coffee during a post-qualification interview in Mexico.

The McLaren driver said, “I don’t know how many coffees Valtteri had this weekend but he’s shown a lot of pace. So, fair play to them.”

The Alfa Romeo driver had an impressive qualifying session in Mexico on Saturday. The Finn finished the qualification in P6, behind Ferrari’s Carlos Sainz. That’s two places ahead of Norris, who starts the race from P8, behind the Ferrari of Charles Leclerc.

Bottas clocked an impressive 1:18.401 on the timesheet and was 0.626 behind the pole sitter, Max Verstappen of Red Bull. As compared to the Finland international, the Briton managed 1:18.721, 0.320 seconds slower than the Alfa Romeo driver.

Valtteri Bottas and his coffee addiction

Valtteri Bottas is a big-time coffee fanatic. We can’t overstate how much Bottas loves his coffees. The Finn loves his coffee so much that he has become a co-owner of a coffee roaster in his native country.

In an interview with Sports Illustrated, Bottas said, “It’s called Kahiwa.” When asked how he got into owning a coffee roaster, the 33-year-old driver stated that when he got back to his country after Covid-19, he discovered a new roastery he had never heard of before.

As Bottas ordered beans from the new roastery in the town, they sent him some grounded coffee by mistake. The Alfa Romeo driver then reached the place by himself to pick up coffee beans and eventually he became a co-owner of the place.

However, what’s more interesting is Bottas’ daily coffee routine. As stated by the driver himself, “It’s quite a routine. When I’m at home, I have one flat white, which is a double shot of espresso, and then a bit of foamy milk with hopefully a bit of latte art on top.”

“And then after that, I’ll have another double espresso after breakfast. And then maybe one more flat white,” concluded Valtteri Bottas of Alfa Romeo. With a few hours to go for the race, it’ll be interesting to see if Bottas’ coffee turns out to be a savior this time around.
