Lando Norris was quick to find his stylish girlfriend Margarida Corceiro following his victory as the Formula 1 champion. Engaging in kisses and embraces, the British racer celebrated his triumph over Max Verstappen and Oscar Piastri at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.
Only requiring a third-place finish at the Yas Marina Circuit to secure the title, Norris successfully achieved this despite initially losing second place to Piastri, his teammate and challenger. Charles Leclerc posed a late threat, but his Ferrari’s performance waned, allowing Norris a clear path to victory.
Overwhelmed with emotion, Norris expressed his gratitude to his team over the radio, tearfully acknowledging their role in fulfilling his dreams. His tears continued as he embraced his parents and Corceiro, with whom he rekindled a public relationship earlier in the season.
Corceiro, a familiar face in the public eye, has drawn increased attention to the partners of F1 drivers this year. Following a comment by Carlos Sainz criticizing the focus on driver’s partners during races, Corceiro remarked that she does not seek out the cameras and is sometimes unaware of being recorded.
Reflecting on his achievement, Norris admitted to shedding tears of joy, thanking his McLaren team, family, and competitors Verstappen and Piastri. Expressing pride in his team’s efforts, he emphasized the challenging journey and his dedication to McLaren over the past nine years.
