Max Verstappen has got a little souvenir from Singapore, and had the perfect idea who he should gift it to. After the Dutchman finished the Grand Prix behind Lando Norris, he got a present for Penelope, Kelly Piquet's daughter from last weekend
In a video on Red Bull Racing Instagram, Max Verstappen was given a little cat souvenir. The Dutchman is well-knownly fond of cats, and therefore received a small figurine that is a good luck charm in Singapore. "I'm sure Penelope will love this," he declared in the video of him opening the gift.
The defending champion also picked a trophy for finishing second in the Asian country, behind Lando Norris and McLaren. Verstappen still has a 52-points lead ahead of the Briton entering the remaining Grand Prix weekends.
