As Lando Norris nears a potential victory in the Formula 1 Drivers’ Championship this weekend, all eyes are not just on the McLaren driver but also on his girlfriend, Margarida Corceiro, who has been garnering attention for her glamorous lifestyle and high-profile presence off the track.

Margarida, a Portuguese model and actress, has gained fame beyond her acting career and has become a muse in the F1 paddock. However, her visibility has sparked some controversy among F1 competitors due to the attention she receives from both fans and rivals, especially after a public display of affection with Lando following his win in Budapest earlier this year.

Born in Santarém, Portugal, on October 26, 2002, Margarida rose to prominence as a teen actress in Portuguese television dramas and later participated in the country’s version of Dancing with the Stars in 2020. Transitioning into modeling, acting, and influencer work, she has built a substantial following on social media platforms like Instagram and TikTok, solidifying her status as one of Portugal’s most recognizable personalities.

Margarida, also known as Magui, co-founded the eco-conscious swimwear brand MISSUS and has collaborated with prominent brands like Intimissimi, Alo Yoga, and Kérastase. Her influence extends beyond being an F1 driver’s partner, as evidenced by her recognition as Forbes’ most influential Portuguese Instagram personality.

While Lando initially kept his relationship with Margarida private, the couple’s official unveiling during the Hungarian Grand Prix in August 2025 marked a turning point. Margarida has since been a constant presence at races, providing unwavering support from the sidelines and attracting media attention.

Despite the attention she commands, Margarida maintains that her role is solely to support Lando, emphasizing her lack of technical knowledge about Formula 1. In an interview, she clarified that she does not actively seek camera attention and prefers to remain focused on being there for her partner.

Amidst the ongoing drama and technical debates in the F1 season, Margarida’s unwavering support for Lando has been a noticeable presence in the paddock. As Lando aims for his first F1 World Drivers’ Championship at the upcoming Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, the couple’s enduring presence signifies a new power couple in the F1 world, undeterred by the controversies surrounding them.
