In the post shared on her Instagram story, Piquet revealed that Verstappen's nickname is 'Mashy', hinting at an exciting year ahead for the F1 champion in his birthday post.

Posting a picture of herself and Verstappen enjoying a romantic moment, Piquet captioned the image: "Happy Birthday Mashy. To a very special year ahead."
