Max Verstappen will not skip any races to attend the birth of his first child.

His girlfriend Kelly Piquet is expected to give birth during the upcoming Formula 1 season.

There is a chance that the reigning world champion will be away on holiday.

Of course I could skip a race, but I won’t, Verstappen said on Tuesday before the big Formula 1 presentation in London. That is not part of being a racing driver.

So it is possible that I will not be there. But we will see when it gets closer, said the 27-year-old from Limburg.

According to the four-time world champion, the pregnancy is going without any problems. I am quite relaxed about it. It will all work out fine.

Verstappen already has a good idea of ​​fatherhood, because his girlfriend has a child from her previous relationship with Formula 1 driver Daniil Kvyat.

Daughter Penelope lives with Verstappen and Piquet in Monaco.

Verstappen’s 25-year-old sister Victoria also has children. In addition, his father Jos had another son in 2019.

So it helps that I have a little insight into how that works. But of course it remains exciting, Verstappen concluded.

The Formula 1 season starts on March 16 in Melbourne, Australia, the start of a 24-race calendar.

Verstappen defends his world title and does so again in a Red Bull Racing car.
