The Formula 1 Australian Grand Prix is all set to kick off this weekend, which naturally has us poring over all the drivers’ deets before we welcome them to the Melbourne racetrack.
Like any sport, the wives and girlfriends are just as worthy of the spotlight as the athletes, particularly since the F1 seems to be a rotating door of hotties. Also, anyone who can lock down an athlete that literally moves at breakneck speeds deserves some attention.
A deep-dive also feels especially relevant given Ferrari driver Charles Leclerc’s recent marriage to Alexandra Saint Mleux, which got us (and likely you) thinking about whether any other F1 drivers are also booed up.
Well, you’ve come to the right place. Here’s the relationship status of all the F1 drivers set to go vroom vroom on the racetrack this weekend. Start your engines!
Alexandra Saint Mleux, Charles Leclerc’s wife
Ferrari star Charles Leclerc confirmed he’d tied the knot with Alexandra Saint Mleux just this week, sharing multiple pics and videos from their Monaco ceremony on social media.
“A day we’ll forever remember,” the athlete wrote, adding that “part two” of the nuptials will happen sometime next year. Fittingly, the wedding snaps see the pair — who met at Paris Fashion week in 2023 — in full wedding garb while driving a bright red Ferrari.
We don’t yet know which starry guests were in attendance, but we can glean from the pics that the Monte Carlo ceremony was an extremely lavish affair. “Can’t wait to marry you all over again next year,” Mleux wrote in her own post. In other words: HANDS OFF!
Kim Kardashian, Lewis Hamilton’s (rumoured) girlfriend
The dating histories of F1 drivers were thrust into the spotlight earlier this year when ultra-famous Ferrari teammate Lewis Hamilton stepped out with a relative unknown by the name of Kim Kardashian (I think that’s how you spell it?).
I kid, of course, because this splashy power couple has been grabbing headlines ever since dating rumours emerged in February. Since then, they’ve made a public appearance at the Super Bowl, and maybe-sorta-kinda soft launched with separate pics shared from their reported getaway to Lake Powell in Arizona this week.
Neither star has outright confirmed the relationship, but a hard launch at the Australian Grand Prix would certainly get tongues a waggin’ and engines a revvin’!
Kelly Piquet, Max Verstappen’s girlfriend
Dutch-Belgian racer Max Verstappen from the Red Bull Racing team is also in a relationship with model, columnist and lucky lady Kelly Piquet. The extremely attractive pair reportedly met in Monaco, and have been together since 2020. They made it IG official the following year, and welcomed a child, Lily, in 2025. Talk about hitting the genetic jackpot!
Margarida Corceiro, Lando Norris’ (on-again, off-again) girlfriend
Things get murky. McLaren’s Lando Norris reportedly had an on-again, off-again relationship with Magui Corceiro up until May of last year. They apparently split again early this year, but Norris was reportedly caught ‘liking’ one of Corceiro’s Instagram pics just this week. It’s all very confusing so consider Norris’ relationship status set as ‘It’s Complicated’.
Lily Zneimer, Oscar Piastri’s girlfriend
Doing Australia proud on the F1 stage is Melbourne-born Oscar Piastri, who has been in a long-term relationship with Lily Zneimer. The pair have been dating since they met at an English boarding school when they were 17 (OK, childhood sweethearts!), but they’re pretty private about their love life. All power to them!
Rebecca Donaldson, Carlos Sainz Jr’s girlfriend
Spanish driver Carlos Sainz Jr. is, by all accounts, still in a relationship with Rebecca Donaldson, who he’s reportedly been dating since 2023. As a fun factoid, Donaldson previously dated Scott Disick, but she now seems all in on Carlos, having been spotted with him on dates in Amsterdam and appearing regularly on his social media.
Donaldson is a model who has featured on the covers of Vogue Ukraine and Marie Claire México, and she launched her own activewear line called Muse Activewear in 2020.
Carmen Montero Mundt, George Russell’s girlfriend
Mercedes star George Russell met his GF Carmen Montero Mundt through a mutual friend back in 2020. Mundt works in finance, and while the pair have never confirmed an engagement, rumours swirled last year that they tied the knot when former Aussie driver Mark Weber referred to Mundt as Russell’s “bride” in an IG comment.
Just last week, Mundt shared a snap of herself and Russell from a hospital bed as she recovered from appendicitis, suggesting this pair are very much still going strong!
Hannah St. John, Liam Lawson’s girlfriend
Racing Bulls’ Liam Lawson is still with his GF Hannah St. John, who has been a regular fixture on the F1 paddock since first linking with the driver in 2022.
She’s a California girl who dabbles in influencing, and when PEDESTRIAN.TV interviewed Lawson last year, we spotted her as his phone background. That’s as good a sign they’re happily booed up as any!
He Muni, Alexander Albon’s girlfriend
In an ultimate sporting couple, driver Alexander Albon is in a relationship with professional golfer He Muni. The pair reportedly met after Muni slid into Albon’s DMs, because she’s only human! Muni plays for the US-based Ladies Professional Golf Association, and the pair’s first date was shared over a game of golf — because I imagine racing was just too intense. Muni and Albon got engaged in January, so we’ll be sure to follow their happily ever after from here on out.
Francisca ‘Kika’ Cerqueria Gomes, Pierre Gasly
Pierre Gasly — whose surname joins that of athletes Usain Bolt and Layne Beachley in being suspiciously appropriate for their sport — has been dating model Francisca “Kika” Cerqueira Gomes since 2022. They hard-launched their relo in 2023, and have attended events together, including F1 races, ever since.
Melissa Jiménez, girlfriend of Fernando Alonso
Aston Martin teammate Fernando Alonso gives the F1 its Superman and Lois Lane moment via his relationship with sports journalist Melissa Jiménez. She regularly covers motorsports, which is reportedly how she met Alonso on the F1 paddock in 2023.
Earlier this year, it was confirmed that the pair are expecting their first child, who’ll likely take their first steps on the paddock given the lineage. The baby is expected to arrive this month, so Alonso might go straight from the track to dad duty!
Tiffany Cromwell, girlfriend of Valtteri Bottas
On the Aussie WAG front, South Australia’s Tiffany Cromwell is booed up with Cadillac driver Valtteri Bottas. They’re also a sporting power couple, since Cromwell is a professional cyclist who competed in the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. The couple reportedly met through a mutual friend in Monaco in 2019, and they’ve been regularly sharing loved-up snaps ever since.
Eglė Ruškytė, Nico Hülkenberg’s wife
Nico Hülkenberg is married to Lithuanian fashion designer Eglė Ruškytė. The pair met in 2015 and got hitched in 2021, and also welcomed a baby later that year.
Ruškytė is known for her luxury crochet clothing brand, fittingly called That Crochet Girl. These two are pretty private about their relationship, but Ruškytė has been spotted multiple times supporting Hülkenberg on the paddock.
Isabella Bernardini, Gabriel Bortoleto’s girlfriend
Audi driver Gabriel Bortoleto has been dating fellow Brazilian Isabella Bernardini since 2020, when they first connected as teenagers in their home country. Bernardini is currently studying Computer Science in Eindhoven, Netherlands, because being a woman in STEM is extremely chic.
Flavy Barla, Esteban Ocon’s girlfriend
After parting ways with long-term girlfriend Elena Berri in 2024, Haas F1 teammate Esteban Ocon linked up with French model and medical student Flavy Barla. She hard-launched their relo on IG in 2024, and she’s just as decorated as her boo with a Miss Côte d’Azur crowning in 2022.
Marilou Bélanger, Lance Stroll’s girlfriend
Marilou Bélanger has been the girlfriend of Canadian F1 driver Lance Stroll since 2023. Bélanger, who works as a model, first began posting pictures of Stroll in September 2024 before officially hard-launching later that year.
Lauren Fitzsimmons, Isack Hadjar’s girlfriend
While Isack Hadjar had seemingly remained single for much of his career, reports emerged last year that he’d entered a relationship with Lauren Fitzsimmons. The Canadian model and art director has since appeared at various F1 events, including in Abu Dhabi and Las Vegas. Sorry ladies, he’s been scooped up!
Eliska Bábíčková, Andrea Kimi Antonelli’s girlfriend
Eliska Bábíčková, the girlfriend of Mercedes teammate Andrea Kimi, is a skilled karting competitor, having won the 2023 Italian championship in the OK karting class.
She and Kimi have been together since 2023, celebrated their first anniversary in October 2024 and are just overall cute as heck together on her socials. She also has a shared YouTube channel called Welcome To The Sisterhood.
Alicia Torriani, Oliver Bearman’s girlfriend
In one of newer couples on this list, Haas F1 racer Oliver Bearman reportedly linked up with his rumoured GF Alicia Torriani earlier this year.
Not much is known about the Monaco native beyond her job as an account manager and her appearance at Grand Prix events in Melbourne and Monza. Bearman was previously involved with model Estelle Ogilvy, but they reportedly separated in 2024.
So there you have it folks, a handy guide to the WAGs that may or may not make an appearance alongside their boos this weekend. While the focus might be on the racers, we’d be remiss not to give these gals a little love when the Australian Grand Prix kicks off!
