The rumor mill went into overdrive after a YouTube channel named Mia Khalifa was spotted to have commented after Max Verstappen’s Miami GP win. Red Bull wonder boy came back from behind to snatch victory from arch-rival Charles Leclerc, adding another one to his highlights reel.
The channel commented on the exciting race highlights: “I love what we are seeing from Max this season.”

“Super Max with an impressive win. Happy to see Bottas doing well as well,” it added. This led many people to think that the Lebanese-American media personality is also a Max Verstappen fan.
However, Max Verstappen’s girlfriend, Kelly Piquet, doesn’t need to worry about it. The channel is not Mia Khalifa’s official channel. The comments were made from a fake account. But, social media didn’t care about it being a fake or a real account.
A lot of people took to Twitter to express what they felt about the whole situation.
