When he entered the top class of Formula 1, Max Verstappen was known as an extremely aggressive and reckless racer. But that was the story of 4 years ago. The once reckless Mad Max has now become much calmer and more mature. That partly comes from his girlfriend Kelly Piquet.
Max and Kelly started their relationship in October 2020, Kelly Piquet was ššØš«š§ in 1988 and has a daughter named Penelope, while Max Verstappen was ššØš«š§ in 1997. But perhaps the age gap of up to 9 years is not a problem for both of them, it even becomes a fulcrum for both of them to develop their relationship.
His girlfriend Kelly’s maturity and independence have trained Verstappen to be more mature in both personality and driving style. Even when the Dutch driver was attacked online, Kelly was the one who stood up and called for his protection.
Not only that, Kelly’s daughter Penelope is also a factor that helps Verstappen change. Both P and Max are extremely close, even this little girl often acts spoiled or teases Max when he is livestreaming. Taking care of P has somehow helped Max become much calmer both in life and when sitting in the car.
If we look at Verstappen before 2020, he was a Mad Max who made a lot of mistakes and fought with many different drivers. But since he got together with his girlfriend Kelly Piquet, who is 9 years older than him, Verstappen has become a completely different person. The mistakes have gradually decreased and Verstappen has won 3 consecutive championships and will soon win his 4th championship.
Going out to be a shark, coming home to be a small fish. Verstappen is extremely lucky to have a very strong support system so that he can achieve the achievements he has today.
