And she shared pictures on the sand in Abu Dhabi as she relaxed in the sun.

Kelly, whose father is disgraced F1 world champion Nelson Piquet, was wearing a cream dress in the images, while also rocking a pair of sunglasses.

Alongside the pictures, she added the Instagram caption: “Sea, sun and sand with my bestie 🥥.”

The “bestie” in question was her four-year-old daughter, Penelope, who she had with former F1 racing driver Daniil Kvyat back in 2019.

She previously held roles as a stylist assistant for Vogue Latin America and a buyer for Bergdorf Goodman.

She is also a model and has worked with brands including Pepe Jeans, PatBo and Louis Vuitton.

After spending time with Marie Claire and Vogue magazines, Kelly took over as part of the social media team for Formula E.

Kelly’s father, Nelson, who won three F1 world titles, was fined £780,000 back in March for aiming racist and homophobic slurs at Lewis Hamilton.

Meanwhile, Verstappen is on pole for the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix as he bids to claim a record-extending 19th win of the season.

Victory in the final race of the calendar would also take him above Sebastian Vettel and into outright third place on the list of most Grands Prix wins with 54.

Since the Azerbaijan Grand Prix in April, Verstappen has won all but one of the 17 races.

The only other drivers to claim victories this season have been his team-mate Sergio Perez – who won two of the opening four – and Carlos Sainz in Singapore in September.
