Who is Max Verstappen’s girlfriend? Meet Kelly Piquet...
Brazilian model Kelly Piquet, 34, has been in a relationship with Verstappen, 24, since 2020.
Her father is Nelson Piquet, the Brazilian who won three F1 world championships, and who insulted Lewis Hamilton with a racist word last year.
Kelly became embroiled in the row when she liked a social media post claiming that her father never intended to be racist. He later apologised to Hamilton.
