Max Verstappen’s shocking driver number change: Kelly Piquet’s hilarious reaction revealed!

Max Verstappen’s F1 Future: Kelly Piquet’s Hilarious Response to Driver Number Speculation!

In the thrilling world of Formula 1, a seismic shift has occurred as Lando Norris has snatched the crown from the hands of Max Verstappen, claiming his first world title at the recent Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. The once-undisputed champion is now faced with a pressing question that has fans buzzing: What number will Verstappen choose as he embarks on a new chapter in his racing career?

The absence of the coveted ‘1’ on his car, a privilege reserved for the reigning champion, has left Verstappen pondering his options for 2026. Will he return to his iconic number ’33’? Or perhaps he’ll opt for his favorite number, ‘3’? The real head-turner, however, is the playful suggestion of racing under the cheeky number ’69’—a proposition that has elicited a riotous reaction from his partner, Kelly Piquet.

In an interview with Viaplay, Verstappen revealed the amusing exchanges that unfold every time he brings up the idea of racing under the number ’69’. “Every time I say it in an interview, Kelly tells me ‘what are you even talking about?'” he chuckled, embodying the mischievous spirit that fans have come to love. His laughter echoed with a hint of rebellion as he added, “You need to have some laughs.”

However, it appears that Verstappen is not inclined to let us in on the joke. Instead of playing the prankster, he has settled on a more conventional choice, announcing that he will don the number ‘3’—previously associated with Daniel Ricciardo—as he gears up to reclaim his title from the McLaren star, Norris.

As the drama unfolds, the F1 community watches in anticipation of how Verstappen will navigate this new era. Can he rise to the occasion and snatch back the golden number ‘1’? Only time will tell. But one thing is clear: the rivalry is heating up, and with Kelly Piquet keeping Verstappen grounded, fans can expect both fierce competition and some light-hearted banter as the 2026 season approaches!

Stay tuned for more updates as this story continues to unfold!
