Fans have flooded social media with congratulatory messages, celebrating the arrival of the baby girl and wishing the young family happiness and health. The Red Bull team also shared a heartwarming photo of a pink onesie with the message “Future World Champion?” as a tribute to the new addition.
With a baby girl now part of his life, Verstappen’s next chapter promises to be filled with not just podiums, but precious family moments as well.
