F1 power couples: Meet the wives and girlfriends of the racing stars in 2025

In the high-octane world of Formula 1, where drivers push the limits of speed on the world's most prestigious racetracks, there exists an often less-explored dimension of the sport — the love and support that fuels the drivers' relentless pursuit of victory. Beyond the roaring engines and the checkered flags lies a cast of remarkable women who stand proudly by the sides of these drivers, sharing in the triumphs and challenges that come with life in the fast lane. As we approach the upcoming Singapore Formula 1 Grand Prix, we’ve decided to dive in behind the helmets and into the lives of the remarkable wives and girlfriends who add depth, glamour, and unwavering support to the world of F1. 

Isack Hadjar and Lauren Fitz Simmons

Looks like this rookie driver is officially off the market. Visa Cash App Racing Bulls’ Isack Hadjar recently shared a carousel of photos from his trip to Tokyo ahead of the 2025 Singapore Grand Prix, featuring his new beau, Lauren Fitz Simmons. Lauren also posted snaps from their getaway on her own Instagram, and fans spotted her watching FP1 and FP2 on Friday alongside Hadjar’s mother.

Liam Lawson and Hannah Michele

Visa Cash App Racing Bulls’ Liam Lawson has been in a relationship with model Hannah Michele — but there’s more to her than meets the eye. Did you know she’s also a medical student who studied biological and biomedical sciences at Arizona State University? While Lawson and Hannah haven’t shared much about their relationship, the two have been together for the past two years, and she’s often spotted alongside the driver at the paddock during races.

Lando Norris and Margarida Corceiro

Lando Norris and Magui Corceiro first sparked dating rumours back in May 2023 when they were spotted together during the Monaco Grand Prix weekend. Over the next year, the pair were seen out and about on several occasions, though neither ever really confirmed where they stood. However, their relationship was only made official in August 2025, when they went public with their relationship at the Hungarian Grand Prix.

Charles Leclerc and Alexandra Saint Mleux

Charles Leclerc is dating Alexandra Saint Mleux, a 24-year-old art history student from France. The two were first spotted out together, enjoying their time in Monaco. The couple was also spotted on other occasions as well including holidaying on a yacht and going for family events together.

Earlier in April this year, the pair adopted an adorable golden retriever puppy called Leo, who has made multiple appearances (and headlines) at the different races over the last few months.

Prior to this, Charles was in a three-year relationship with architecture student, Charlotte Sine, before their public mutual breakup in December 2022.

Max Verstappen and Kelly Piquet

Brazilian model Kelly Piquet, 36, has been in a relationship with Verstappen, 27, since 2020. The two went Instagram official early in 2021, when Max posted a photo of himself and Kelly on the beach along with the caption, “Happy New Year everyone. Let’s make 2021 a year to remember in many ways. Wishing you all success, love and happiness just as I found mine.”

Kelly, whose father is Nelson Piquet, and brother, Nelson Piquet Jr., are also both F1 racers. However, Nelson was reportedly banned from the F1 paddock when he was called out by Lewis Hamilton when he was caught using a racial slur against Lewis in a 2021 interview. Kelly also shares a daughter, Penelope, with former F1 driver Daniil Kvyat, whom she dated in 2019, and has since welcomed a child with current F1 champion Max Verstappen.

Kimi Antonelli and Eliska Babickova

Kimi Antonelli is currently dating Eliska Babickova, a Czech karting talent he met through the circuit in 2023. A former OK class champion, Eliska has been spotted at several F1 races cheering him on, with their relationship gradually stepping into the public eye from late 2023 into 2024.

Carlos Sainz and Rebecca Donaldson

Carlos Sainz and Rebecca Donaldson were first linked in 2023 after she fronted a Ferrari campaign for the Roma Spider. While the pair initially kept their romance low-key, they’ve since gone more public, with Rebecca frequently spotted trackside showing her support at his races.

Pierre Gasly and Francisca “Kika” Cerqueira Gomes

Ladies, Pierre is off the market. The Alpine driver is reportedly going out with Kika, a 22-year-old Portuguese model. A renowned TV presenter in her home country of Portugal, Kika has a large following on social media and has also been classed as an influencer. The two were first spotted together in the paddock at the 2022 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.

Previously, the French driver was dating Caterina Masetti Zannini up until 2022.

Oscar Piastri and Lily Zneimer

The duration of Oscar Piastri and Lily Zneimer’s relationship remains undisclosed, but it appears to have been ongoing for quite some time. There is speculation that they may have started dating during Oscar’s Formula 4 years.

Oscar Piastri and Lily Zneimer made their first public appearance together at the Autosport Awards in 2022. This event coincided with Oscar receiving the Rookie of the Year award for his performance in the 2021 Formula 2 season. After receiving the award, he also shared an Instagram post featuring Lily Zneimer from the awards ceremony.

Alex Albon and Muni Lily He

Muni Lily He, a Chinese professional golfer competing on the LPGA Tour, has become a recognisable figure and is often spotted at races. Lily and Alex began their relationship in 2019, and she has been a strong support system for the racer himself, especially when she’s not busy with her own golfing pursuits. If you look them up on their socials, you’ll notice that the two regularly share glimpses of their time together on their respective social media profiles.

George Russell and Carmen Montero Mundt

Believe it or not, George Russell was previously dating the sister of Nyck de Vries. However, since 2020, the Mercedes driver has been linked with Carmen Montero Mundt, who works at an investment firm, and revealed on social media that she met Russell through a mutual friend in London.

Oliver Bearman and Alicia Torriani

New to the F1 grid, Bearman already has a bit of a dating history. He was previously linked to Estelle Ogilvy before moving on with Alicia Torriani, whom he reportedly began dating around October last year. Alicia even made an appearance at the 2024 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, where she was spotted alongside the Leclerc family.

Esteban Ocon and Flavy Barla

Esteban Ocon ended his 2023 Formula 1 season with Flavy Barla, his new love interest who is also a 21-year-old medical student from Nice, France. Aside from having aspirations of being a surgeon, Flavy also holds the title of Miss Cote d’Azur, a remarkable achievement in the world of beauty pageants.

Previously, the driver was in a five-year relationship with Elena Berri, a social media influencer and model. The two have known each other since 2017, but they only started dating in 2018. Unlike the other couples, the two have kept their relationships private for the past five years.

Sergio Perez and Carola Martinez Galindo

Carola Martinez Galindo was born on December 16, 1997, in Guadalajara, Mexico. On June 3, 2018, she tied the knot with the renowned Red Bull F1 driver. Despite being in a relationship with Sergio Perez AKA ‘Checo’, for some time, Carola intentionally avoided the media attention that comes with being the partner of a famous Formula 1 driver.

Their relationship remained private until 2017 when Sergio was about to become a father, of which he decided to make their relationship public. On August 13, 2017, Sergio proposed to Carola, and the couple got married the following year.

Valterri Bottas and Tiffany Cromwell

In September 2016, Bottas tied the knot with his longtime partner, Emilia Pikkarainen, an Olympic swimmer from Finland, in a ceremony held at St. John’s Church in Helsinki. The two were together since 2010. However, in November 2019, Bottas and Emilia announced that they were getting a divorce.
