Max Verstappen was left frustrated after losing out on the podium at the Miami Grand Prix despite securing pole position in qualifying. But his girlfriend, Kelly Piquet, made sure to lift his spirits by sharing a hilarious post on Instagram. The two recently welcomed a baby girl between the Miami Grand Prix sessions and have named her Lily. While Kelly couldn’t make it to the race in person, her friends made an effort to cheer for him and fill in for her absence.
Kelly Piquet’s friends cheered for Max Verstappen in styleTaking to her Instagram Stories after the race, Kelly Piquet shared her friend Xenia Adonts’ Instagram post, which showed two women holding placards in support of Max Verstappen. One of the placards read “Baby’s first podium,” while the other said, “Go Max Daddy Go.” Reacting to her friend’s hilarious post, Kelly simply wrote, “Dead.”
Verstappen and Piquet had announced the birth of their daughter on May 2. A monochrome picture showed a baby’s hand holding her parent’s finger. Another showed Verstappen looking at Lily while Piquet held her in her arms. The Red Bull driver wrote alongside the pictures, “Welcome to the world, sweet Lily. Our hearts are fuller than ever – you are our greatest gift. We love you so much.”
As soon as Verstappen became a father, many raised doubts that it could impact the reigning No. 1 driver’s performance. But he proved them wrong by securing pole position in the qualifying session at the Miami Grand Prix.
He went on to shut down any doubts about fatherhood affecting his form. “Clearly, it didn't make me slower being a dad, so that's a positive. So we can throw that out of the window as well, for people mentioning it. I don't really listen to these kinds of silly things, I just do my thing," he told the media, including ESPN.

Up next is the Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix in Imola, from May 16–18.
