Formula 1 Sensation: Max Verstappen’s Partner Flaunts Baby Bump Ahead of Due Date
In the midst of the thrilling anticipation surrounding the impending arrival of her first child with four-time F1 world champion Max Verstappen, Kelly Piquet mesmerizes fans with a sneak peek of her blossoming baby bump. The clock is ticking as Red Bull’s top driver and his partner eagerly await the birth of their little bundle of joy, with news of the new arrival expected to break any day now, as revealed by Red Bull chief Helmut Marko slated for ‘early May’.
Recently, Piquet reveled in a lavish baby shower aboard her partner’s Monaco yacht, surrounded by loved ones and friends. Social media buzzed with speculations about the baby’s gender following footage shared from the extravagant celebration. However, keeping the excitement alive, the Brazilian model took to Instagram over the weekend, sharing endearing photos of herself and her furry companion, Nino, relishing a laid-back Sunday moment before the whirlwind of parenthood begins. Captioning the post with, “Lazy Sunday with my bestie,” Piquet radiated joy and contentment.
While Verstappen gears up for the thrilling role of a first-time father, he humorously acknowledges the challenges of sleepless nights that lie ahead. Despite his commitment to not miss any races surrounding the baby’s birth, the pressure is on for the Dutchman to maintain his competitive edge in the F1 circuit. As he eyes a fifth championship title, currently trailing behind Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris in the drivers’ standings, Verstappen faces mounting speculation about his future with Red Bull.
With only one victory in five races this season, rumors swirl around Verstappen’s potential discontent at Red Bull, hinting at a possible shift to Mercedes or Aston Martin. However, the 27-year-old driver remains tight-lipped about his next career move, choosing to channel his focus on improving track performance with Red Bull. As the Miami Grand Prix approaches, where Verstappen has clinched victory twice before, all eyes are on him to ignite a much-needed turnaround in his racing fortunes.
