Verstappen's and Red Bull's run of 10 consecutive victories ended in Singapore, when the team had an off weekend, and the Dutchman could finish only fifth.
Prior to Carlos Sainz's victory for Ferrari there had been a lot of talk about Verstappen's run of success being bad for the world championship and its TV viewership, with Liberty Media CEO Greg Maffei also expressing such sentiments.
Asked by Autosport in Suzuka if he could see a bigger picture of Sainz's win being good for F1, Verstappen made it clear that he didn't agree.
"Honestly, I have zero interest in that," he said. "For me, it was just we got beaten, in a very clear way. I don't think about what is good for F1.
"I don't think it's necessarily bad what was happening to F1, because we were just better than everyone else. And if people can't appreciate that, then you're not a real fan. But yeah, that's how it goes.
"That's why I was also super relaxed about it because we didn't perform. Other people did a better job than us, then of course they deserved to win. They shouldn't win because people say it's boring that we are winning."

Asked about his feelings after missing out in Singapore, he said: "No emotion. I mean, we stopped winning for one race. Shit happens.
"We won 10 in a row before that. Of course, I would have liked to win there as well.
"But I also know that there is always going to be a day you have that weekend where you're not winning, or things go wrong. And yeah, unfortunately, it was that weekend, but we just move on, and try again."
