As Lando Norris approaches a potential victory in the Formula 1 Drivers’ Championship this weekend, all eyes are not just on the McLaren star but also on his girlfriend, Margarida Corceiro. Margarida, a well-known Portuguese model and actress, has garnered attention both on and off the track, sparking discussions and controversies among F1 competitors.
Since their public display of affection following Lando’s win in Budapest earlier this year, the media and fans have closely followed the couple, generating a mix of reactions and opinions. Margarida, also known as Magui, gained initial fame as a teenage actress in Portuguese TV shows and later appeared on Dancing with the Stars in 2020, solidifying her presence in the public eye.
Transitioning into a successful career in modeling, acting, and social media influencing, Margarida has amassed a significant following on platforms like Instagram and TikTok, making her one of Portugal’s most recognizable figures. Through her posts showcasing a luxurious lifestyle and collaborations with major brands, she has established herself as more than just an F1 driver’s partner.
Despite speculations and glimpses of their relationship in 2023 and 2024, it wasn’t until the Hungarian Grand Prix in August 2025 that Lando and Margarida officially confirmed their romance. Margarida’s prominent presence at races, supporting Lando from the sidelines, has stirred discussions within the F1 community, with some expressing concerns about the focus on partners rather than the racing action.
In response to the attention, Margarida has maintained that her role is solely to support her partner and that she does not actively seek out camera coverage. Lando has described her as someone he can be himself with, highlighting her down-to-earth nature and adventurous lifestyle.
As Lando gears up for the final race in Abu Dhabi, where he could clinch his first F1 World Drivers’ Championship, Margarida continues to stand by his side amidst the season’s ups and downs. Despite criticisms, the couple remains a prominent duo in the F1 paddock, showing no signs of fading away anytime soon.
