Max Verstappen‘s girlfriend is no stranger to the fast cars on the fast tracks in Formula 1. She grew up cheering on her world-champion, dad, Nelson Piquet to now cheering for her world-champion boyfriend. As the weekend at Austin progresses, she flaunts her attendance at the Red Bull garage. Acquainted with the behind-the-scenes, she brought her fans along with her adventures at the United States Grand Prix.
With 1.3 million followers on Instagram, Piquet often shares snaps of her modeling, her romantic outings with Max Verstappen, her daughter, and a lot more. As entertaining and beautiful as her Instagram feed is, Piquet does not hold back her voice and influence on raising issues plaguing the world.

Amid the escalating tensions in the Middle East, Verstappen’s girlfriend has been exceptionally vocal. She consistently urged her 1.3 million followers to stand against war crimes, posting stories and information on the crisis in Gaza. However, social media is a treacherous track. The Brazilian model’s story generated enough voice that meta-flagged her. After a week of using her platform to bring light to the humanitarian crisis, her Instagram is now race day ready.
Having worked as an assistant stylist at Vogue México y Latinoamérica, she can definitely pull out a perfect outfit for the race day. Clad in old-money aesthetic, the stunning model shared on her Instagram story seemingly enjoying herself at a rather empty Red Bull garage hanging around with her friends.
The Brazilian model is a racing royalty. No wonder she is extremely supportive of the three-time world champion Max Verstappen. As she smiles for the pictures and videos, the Austrian outfit might have little to smile about going into the main race.

The Verstappen train encountered another hurdle at the United States Grand Prix. After the Grand Prix Sunday in Singapore, the Friday qualifying session was another minor shock. However, Verstappen seemed to take the bad qualifying in stride. He joked that starting from P6 would make for a fun race. We haven’t forgotten the Belgian Grand Prix 2022 when Verstappen started P14 and was leading the race by the end with a gap of 17 seconds!
But circumstances are slightly changing as Mercedes and Ferrari have woken up from their hibernation of the past seven months. The grid is closer than it was in 2022. Add McLaren boys to the mix and Verstappen could have a hard time pulling a gap of 17 seconds. However, take the upgrades with a grain of salt, as the Red Bull driver resumed his lead in the shootout and the sprint. Verstappen successfully converted his sprint pole to a sprint victory while pulling a 9-second gap in a 19-lap race.
