For a whole day speculation was rife regarding Max Verstappen's fatherhood. Now the Dutchman himself has revealed he and girlfriend Kelly Piquet are proud parents to a beautiful baby girl.

GPblog was the first to report yesterday that Verstappen had delayed his flight to the US to take part in the Miami Grand Prix. The reason? Kelly Piquet going into labour.

After Red Bull Racing's short statement confirming that was the case, it was only a matter of time before the birth of the 'mini Verstappen-Piquet' baby was announced.

The colour pattern for the baby shower, Piquet picking out baby girl's clothes in a department store, and a message written on a baby shower journal all indicated that Verstappen and Piquet would have a girl.

In the end the clues - inadvertently - given along the past few months were true. Piquet gave birth to a beautiful and healthy baby girl, whom the couple have named Lily.

Andrea Kimi Antonelli has become the youngest ever pole sitter in the history of F1, but after his pole he has also shown his highly ambitious character as he is eager to repeat today's success across the whole Miami Grand Prix weekend.

Speaking on F1TV, the young Italian, who had never driven on the Miami track before, spoke of his feelings after achieving pole."I'm feeling over the moon. You know, I did not expect it, but I was feeling good in the car. I was able to improve lap by lap and find that consistency. And that lap came all together and I'm super, super happy with that."

"Now we will enjoy this moment a little bit more but I want to focus on tomorrow because I really want to try and repeat myself," added the young and ambitious Italian.
