Piquet mother takes swipe at Leclerc's paddock styleA minor Formula 1 WAG dispute has erupted after Sylvia Tamsma, the former partner of triple world champion Nelson Piquet and mother of Max Verstappen's partner Kelly Piquet, criticised Alexandra Leclerc's Hungarian GP paddock appearance.
Charles Leclerc, Hungarian GP 2026© FerrariAlexandra, who is visibly pregnant, attracted attention at the Hungaroring with a series of high-fashion outfits while accompanied by the couple's dog.
Tamsma reportedly commented beneath an Instagram reel featuring Charles Leclerc's wife: In the 80s we didn't have a fashion show in the paddock.
The remark was later deleted after prompting criticism, including questions about Kelly Piquet's own prominent fashion forays.
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Alexandra reportedly responded only: Ok, ok, while Kelly apparently used social media to express embarrassment over her mother's comment.
