As Max Verstappen gears up for his quest for a fifth consecutive Formula 1 World Championship in 2025, he’s also preparing for a life-changing event outside of racing: fatherhood. The Red Bull driver, who has been in a relationship with Kelly Piquet since 2020, announced at the end of 2024 that the couple is expecting their first child together.

In addition to this exciting news, Verstappen and Piquet’s newborn will have a sibling in Penelope, Piquet’s daughter from her previous relationship with former Red Bull driver Daniil Kvyat.

Recently, Kelly Piquet shared a special moment with fans on her Instagram, revealing a custom lifebuoy ring with the phrase “Baby Piquet-Verstappen on board” during a recent boat party. The sweet gesture gives fans a glimpse into the couple’s journey as they await the arrival of their child, adding a personal touch to their growing family.

Verstappen Looks Ahead to Fatherhood, But No Major Changes Expected

As Verstappen prepares for another intense F1 season, he was asked how becoming a father might change him. The Dutch driver, known for his intense focus and determination on the track, expressed his excitement but assured that his driving would remain unaffected.

“To be honest, I hope not a lot will change,” Verstappen said during an interview with Red Bull’s website. “In terms of driving, it shouldn’t. It’s for sure very exciting. It’s very difficult to put that into words until the baby is born. But for sure I am looking forward to it a lot, and looking forward to that whole experience throughout the year.”

While Verstappen’s commitment to racing remains steadfast, it’s clear that the arrival of his child will be a significant milestone in his life. However, Verstappen has made it clear that he doesn’t plan on extending his F1 career into his 40s, a decision that sets him apart from other F1 legends like Lewis Hamilton and Fernando Alonso. His focus remains on continuing his success on the track while also embracing the joys of fatherhood.

As Verstappen and Piquet prepare for this new chapter, their fans are eager to see how the two worlds of family and F1 will blend for the reigning champion as he aims to continue his dominance in the sport.
