WATCH: Max Verstappen Steps Out of His Comfort Zone for a Romantic Number With Girlfriend Kelly Piquet

To say the very least, it is heartwarming to see Max Verstappen run up to his partner, Kelly Piquet, every time he celebrates his victory in a Grand Prix. The couple first met in 2020. And since then, F1 fans have been able to spot Kelly right beside Verstappen in his garage, supporting him through thick and thin.

The pair look very happy and in love with each other whenever they are seen together. Recently Kelly, who is the daughter of three-time world champion Nelson Piquet, took to Instagram to share a video of her dancing with Verstappen.

“I’ll dance my life away with you,” wrote Piquet in her caption. It is interesting to see the world champion dancing while sharing a romantic moment with Kelly.

F1 fans too took notice of Verstappen‘s romantic moment with his girlfriend and shared their reactions.

Verstappen once again showed his prowess on the track as he won the Azerbaijan GP on Sunday. He inherited the lead after Charles Leclerc‘s retirement. But he sympathized with his rival after Leclerc’s disappointment this season.

Verstappen revealed he can feel the pain of his rival as at the start of the season it was he who was facing the same problem. He mentioned that he, too, would be disappointed if the same thing happened to him.

“I would always say, s*** happens. That’s racing, you know? It happened to me, it happened to many people in the past. Unfortunately, it’s happening to Charles.

“Yes, if I would be in the same situation, I would also be disappointed. I think that’s very normal, but it’s about how you come out of it. You always look at how to improve things–that’s what we did at the beginning of the season. You learn from it, you don’t like it, you’re angry, but we turned it around,” said the Red Bull driver.

It is really nice to see this side of the Dutch driver this season. He is certainly much more at ease and relaxed after his maiden world championship this season. But it would be interesting to see if he will remain the same when the pressure comes at the end of the season.
