Max Verstappen‘s latest livestream with Team Redline turned into an adorable family affair when his girlfriend’s daughter and their cats decided to join the fun.
Instead of his usual sim racing setup, the F1 champion was relaxing on the sofa with friends in his living room. Eagle-eyed fans could spot his impressive collection of racing trophies displayed in the background.
The stream quickly became a parade of furry and family visitors.
Verstappen proudly introduced viewers to the newest member of their cat family, Donatello. Not to be outdone, Jimmy, another of his cats, made himself comfortable on the lap of one of Max’s guests.
But the real star of the show was little Penelope, Kelly Piquet’s daughter, who has become a regular and beloved guest on Max’s streams.
The little girl first appeared to “borrow” Max’s headset, temporarily taking over his streaming duties. While Max was briefly silenced, Penelope charmed everyone with an adorable “Hi boys!” greeting to his online friends.
She returned later for an even sweeter moment – giving Max a goodnight hug before heading to bed.
Fans on social media couldn’t get enough of these heartwarming interactions.
“My goats getting bullied,” joked one Twitter user, sharing the clip of Penelope taking over the headset.
Another fan commented on the goodnight moment: “Awe P wishing Max goodnight, that’s sweet.”
These casual family moments offer F1 fans a rare glimpse into Verstappen’s life away from the intensity of the racetrack, showing the three-time world champion’s softer side as he balances his professional racing career with family life.
The stream also highlighted how comfortable Penelope has become with Max, suggesting the racing star has settled nicely into his role in her life.
