“You don’t know what she did to us” — Lewis Hamilton speaks out about Max Verstappen’s wife after years of silence
Lewis Hamilton, seven-time Formula 1 world champion, has finally spoken out about the wife of his rival, Max Verstappen, after years of silence. In a revealing interview, Hamilton shared his feelings and reflections on the impact Verstappen’s relationship with his wife, Kelly Piquet, has had on him. The statements, which further inflame the two drivers’ infamous rivalry, have sent the world of motorsport into turmoil.
Hamilton, who has been involved in an intense battle with Verstappen for the world title for years, has always tried to keep his private life out of the media. However, there was always speculation about the tensions between the two drivers, especially after the increasingly bloodcurdling battles on the track. Now it turns out that Verstappen’s personal relationship with Piquet has had more influence on Hamilton than many fans had thought.
“You don’t know what she did to us,” Hamilton said in the interview, making it clear that the emotions and complexities of the situation extend far beyond a simple sporting rivalry. The relationship between Verstappen and Piquet, who is the daughter of legendary Brazilian Formula One driver Nelson Piquet, has dominated the media for years, and Hamilton has always tried to focus on his on-track performance rather than his rival’s personal affairs.
However, it has become clear that the tension between Hamilton and Verstappen was not just professional, but also personal. Kelly Piquet, who was previously involved with Brazilian driver Daniil Kvyat, came into the spotlight after she went public with her relationship with Verstappen. The situation became more complicated when the media and fans focused their attention on the influence Piquet had on the dynamic between Hamilton and Verstappen, which Hamilton said had a definite impact on his mental state.
Although Hamilton did not discuss his personal feelings for Piquet in detail, it was clear that the situation had affected him emotionally. The strength of the rivalry between him and Verstappen has always been accompanied by deep-seated personal emotions, something that fans may not always understand. His words reflected a frustration, not only with the professional rivalry, but also with how personal relationships can affect an athlete’s career.
It comes as a surprising move to many that Hamilton has spoken out so openly about his feelings and experiences. The rivalry between Hamilton and Verstappen has always been a topic of discussion, but these statements add a new layer to the story. While fans are left wondering what these revelations will mean for the future of the rivalry between the two drivers, it is clear that the relationship between them is much more complex than just a sporting rivalry. Hamilton has finally shown himself to be a man who not only battles on the asphalt, but also with the personal influences that the sport brings.
