Max Verstappen leaves girlfriend Kelly Piquet alone at a wedding in Portugal – here’s the shocking reason why
Piquet enjoyed the wedding despite Verstappen’s absence.

She titled the post “Lady in red” but did not explain her boyfriend’s absence from the event.

The answer can be found on Twitch where Verstappen was streaming himself racing in the virtual 24 Hours of Nurburgring.

The current world champion F1 driver was racing as part of his virtual F1 Team Redline streaming with another member Chris Lulham.

Verstappen apparently decided to join the competition at the last minute after Lulham had complained about the amount of work he had to do for his upcoming exams.

Lulham was on the call talking with Verstappen while the F1 driver took part in the race.

During the race Lulham tries to defend himself saying: “If I had raced I would have had to rock up with like five hours break.”

However, Verstappen quickly cuts him off saying: “I cancelled a wedding for it.”

Lulham suggests that Verstappen was happy to cancel his plans though saying: “Don’t tell me this isn’t what you’d rather be doing.”

To which Verstappen replies: “I love sim racing, but sometimes you have to think about the greater good.”

Verstappen has previously shown that he is almost as passionate about virtual F1 racing as he is about the real deal.

He slammed Le Mans Virtual’s organisers after issues with the servers prevented him from finishing.

Recently, he installed a full F1 simulator in his £12million private jet so that he can practise on the go. 

Despite Verstappen’s absence, Piquet appears to have had a great time at the wedding, with a fan commenting on her post that Piquet even managed to catch the bouquet.
