Lando Norris goes public with Margarida Corceiro in Monaco — meet the model who previously dated Joao Félix
While Lando Norris was busy lighting up the track with a pole position performance at the Monaco Grand Prix on Saturday, the internet had its eyes locked on something—or someone—just off the grid, as stunning Portuguese model and actress Margarida Corceiro was spotted cheering him on from the stands. She was alone but sitting comfortably with Norris' family, practically confirming every single romance rumour that's been floating around since last year. Norris locks in pole at the Monaco Grand Prix and shuts down doubts in style On the racing front, Lando Norris put together a qualifying lap that was nothing short of electric, reminding everyone why he's still very much in the title conversation as he beat out Charles Leclerc and Oscar Piastri to take pole at one of the most challenging tracks in Formula 1. The Monaco Grand Prix isn't just any race; it's a historic, high-stakes showdown where the streets are tight, overtakes are rare, and qualifying often ends up being the biggest decider of who takes the win. After a rocky stretch in qualifying sessions that cost him momentum in the World Drivers Championship, Norris finally found his rhythm again and said exactly what many fans were thinking: it was about time. 'It's been a long time coming,' the 25-year-old admitted, while also making it clear that he never lost belief in his abilities, even if the results didn't always show it. Margarida Corceiro joins Norris' family in Monaco; relationship rumors all but confirmed Although neither Lando Norris nor Margarida Corceiro has gone on record to say 'yes, we're together,' at this point it honestly feels unnecessary, especially after Monaco, where she was not only present but sitting directly with Norris' family and celebrating his pole position like someone who's been part of the journey, not just a casual weekend guest. 🚨Magui Corceiro at Monaco's quali in Mclaren Italy about: «Lando Norris girlfriend is also watching the quali»Skysport Germany showed the girl with Norris' we talk so about a new couple?Let us know in the comments 👇🏻#landonorris #McLaren #f1 Magui la novia de Lando en compañía de la mamá del piloto este sábado en el garage de McLaren It's not the first time she's been seen around him either, as sharp-eyed fans will remember spotting the two at the Monte Carlo Masters in April, and before that, there was Miami, where Corceiro kept things low-key but still managed to show support online with a sweet little comment and a couple of subtle likes on his Grand Prix win posts. After months of speculation that started all the way back in April 2024 when the pair were seen together around Monaco, this latest public moment felt like a confirmation. So, who is Maragarida Corceiro? If you're wondering who Margarida Corceiro, also known as Magui Corceiro, actually is beyond the clips and headlines, she's not just 'Lando's rumoured girlfriend' but a well-known model and actress in Portugal who's been working with major fashion and beauty brands like Armani Beauty and Missus Swimsuits, while also building a solid resume in Portuguese television since 2019, including a few popular soap operas, as per a People report. She has over 1.9 million followers on Instagram and keeps them in the loop with glimpses of her daily life. A lover of fashion, travel, and all things lifestyle, her feed reads like an aesthetic moodboard you could scroll through for hours. She made headlines last year after her breakup with football star Joao Félix, and while she didn't immediately comment on the split, she later addressed it on Instagram in June, calling it a phase of growth and learning, and making it clear that while they were no longer a couple, there was still mutual respect. Magui was first spotted with Norris in 2023 when they were seen driving together around Monaco amid reports of her split from the soccer star. They kept it lowkey for a while, but were soon made public sightings together. Fast forward to 2024, and after a long stretch without any major public sightings, Corceiro and Norris were seen again, watching tennis together and showing just enough to keep fans talking without making anything official—until now, when she showed up in Monaco, with his family, watching him race from pole position, and made everything feel a little more real. Norris' previous relationship Lando Norris was previously in a relationship with Portuguese model Luisinha Oliveira, known to fans as Luisinha, from late 2021 until their quiet split in September 2022. The pair went public in early 2022, with Oliveira frequently spotted at races and even making an appearance in Netflix's Drive to Survive. Although the breakup wasn't officially announced, it was confirmed through subtle social media clues and news coverage at the time. In the most recent season of Drive to Survive, Norris briefly touched on the past relationship, admitting he still keeps a few things from his ex, hinting that the memories haven't completely faded.

Mclaren should win every race in 2025, says Mercedes' Russell
SHANGHAI, March 20 (Reuters) - Mclaren's 2025 Formula One car should win every race, rival Mercedes driver George Russell said on Thursday, adding that the 2024 champions are further up the road than Red Bull's title winner was in 2023, during which it won all but one race. "Their car is definitely capable of winning every race, and their car should win every race," the British driver told reporters ahead of the Chinese Grand Prix. "The gap they have on everybody this year is bigger than Red Bull has ever had." Red Bull's 2023 car was arguably the most dominant in the sport's history, with the RB19 crossing the finishing line first on 21 out of 22 occasions and beating Mercedes to the constructors' championship by a record-breaking 451 points. Mclaren locked out the front row in qualifying for last weekend's Australian Grand Prix, with Lando Norris nearly four tenths of a second quicker than Red Bull's four-time world champion Max Verstappen in third. The 25 year-old driver went on to win the race and also set the fastest lap, and the Briton is already established as the title favourite. Norris is looking for his first hat-trick of wins in China. "(Mclaren) may struggle when it's cold, but they're clearly better than everyone else at cooling their tyres," Russell said, pointing to Las Vegas, a street track, as one of the "outlier circuits" where the team in papaya "potentially will struggle." Mclaren's Oscar Piastri shrugged off Russell's remarks. "George has come up with some funny things in the last couple of weeks," the Australian driver said. "If he wants to write off his season after the first weekend, then I'll let him do that, but I think we're very aware that Melbourne was an exceptional weekend rather than what we're expecting to be the norm." Red Bull's Max Verstappen also said he felt his team had work to do if it was to break free from a chasing pack comprising of the Mercedes and Ferrari cars. "I think the clear picture that you saw was Mclaren was quite far ahead, because I don't think I'm an idiot in the wet," the Dutch driver said, referring to the Melbourne race's tricky conditions. "I think, in general, (Red Bull) just need to be better as a whole, compared to Mclaren, they're just good everywhere."
