Lando Norris is inching closer to a potential victory in the Formula 1 Drivers’ Championship this weekend, drawing attention not just for his racing prowess but also for his girlfriend, Margarida Corceiro.
Margarida, a former Portuguese model and actress who has now become a popular figure in the F1 paddock, has garnered significant fame alongside Norris. Despite the controversies surrounding the spotlight on their relationship and the distractions it poses, Margarida continues to shine in her own right.
Known as Magui, Margarida first gained prominence as a teen actress in Portuguese TV shows and later made waves on social media platforms like Instagram and TikTok, amassing a considerable following. Her glamorous lifestyle, filled with fashion shoots, luxury vacations, and brand collaborations, has solidified her status as one of Portugal’s most recognizable personalities.
Aside from her social media presence, Margarida is also a co-founder of the eco-friendly swimwear brand MISSUS and has worked with renowned fashion brands like Intimissimi, Alo Yoga, and Kérastase. Her success extends beyond being just an F1 driver’s partner, as evidenced by her recognition as the most influential figure on Instagram in Portugal by Forbes.
While Lando initially kept his relationship with Margarida under wraps, they were eventually seen together at public events, confirming their romantic involvement. Their public debut as a couple during the Hungarian Grand Prix in August 2025 marked a turning point, with Margarida actively supporting Lando during his races and drawing attention from spectators and media alike.
The increased visibility of Margarida in the F1 paddock has sparked discussions among drivers, with Carlos Sainz criticizing the excessive focus on partners and celebrities during race broadcasts. Despite the criticisms, Margarida maintains that her role is solely to support Lando and that she has no technical knowledge of Formula 1.
As Lando aims to secure his first F1 World Drivers’ Championship at the upcoming Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, Margarida stands by his side as a steadfast source of support amidst the challenges and triumphs of the season. Together, they have emerged as a prominent power couple in the F1 world, poised to make a lasting impact despite the controversies surrounding their relationship.
