Max Verstappen lives with his girlfriend Kelly Piquet and her daughter Penelope in Monaco. During a new Team Redline livestream, the Dutchman was disturbed several times while gaming by 'P', as he calls Penelope.

On Tuesday night, Max Verstappen was not playing a sim racing game for once, but EA Sports FC. During the livestream, Penelope came on screen several times to give various items to the Dutchman. Verstappen was busy playing his game and sent her away.

Incidentally, it was the first livestream where Jarno Opmeer was present. The Dutchman recently joined Red Bull Racing's sim racing team. To usher in his first livestream, Opmeer had to sing a song. Verstappen very much enjoyed this and burst out laughing.
