After the first and only practice session of the Miami Grand Prix, Charles Leclerc went to meet Max Verstappen and congratulate him on his and girlfriend Kelly Piquet's first child together, Lily.
Verstappen was noticeably absent on Thursday for the Miami Grand Prix media day. On Friday, it became clear why: Verstappen and Piquet had welcomed their baby girl, Lily into the world, as the couple announced on Instagram.
The couple have since received many congratulations from several drivers, including Lewis Hamilton, George Russell, Nico Hulkenberg, and Fernando Alonso.
