The end of the Formula 1 season in Abu Dhabi not only crowned a new world champion but also left one of the most talked-about scenes of the moment: the emotional embrace between Lando Norris and his girlfriend, model Magui Corceiro. Although the British driver became champion for the first time in his career, the attention was not solely on the sporting achievement. The shine of the celebration inevitably linked to the presence of his partner, the Portuguese actress who has become one of the most photographed faces in the paddock in recent months.
Corceiro's arrival at the Yas Marina circuit captured attention from the start. In her usual style, the actress discreetly positioned herself among family members and team members, but every gesture revealed the tension and nerves accumulated during a decisive weekend. When Norris crossed the finish line and confirmed his title, she couldn't hold back the tears. The kiss they shared a few seconds later became the iconic image of the day, a display of affection that even moved the pilot's mother, who was present at the scene.
However, the story of this couple has not been a bed of roses. Since they were first seen together in 2023 in Monaco, their relationship was surrounded by speculations and rumors due to Corceiro's previous romantic involvement with footballer Joao Félix. For weeks, there were talks of a supposed love triangle, but it soon became clear that this version was not the true reality: the actress and the Portuguese player had broken up months earlier, although the news had not been made public. This lack of public information sparked the initial controversy. During their four-year relationship with the footballer, they shared some moments together. Therefore, the model's public appearance at sports circuits did not attract much attention.
Still, for a long period, Lando and Magui chose to keep their bond away from the spotlight and headlines. They were rarely seen together, and their appearances on social media were nonexistent, leading many to believe that it was just a passing fling. However, the turning point came in late September when Norris admitted in an interview that his heart was taken and that Magui was precisely the one responsible. His words confirmed what many had suspected: their relationship was in a solid place.
Since then, the Portuguese actress, whose full name is Margarida, has become a regular presence in the pilot's key moments, while still maintaining a balance in her public life. With over 2.3 million followers on Instagram, Corceiro combines her content creator role with modeling work and occasional appearances in film and television, including her participation in the series Punto Nemo and a film project alongside Spanish actor Maxi Iglesias. Her popularity has continued to grow, partly due to her professional career, but also because of her relationship with one of the athletes of the year.
Norris's triumph, accompanied by Magui's emotion, has reinforced the image of a young and media-savvy couple. What happened in Abu Dhabi not only celebrated a championship but also sealed an important chapter in their relationship, establishing them as one of the most striking duos in the European social scene. In fact, Magui wasted no time in sharing a photo with her boyfriend where they appear very much in love. "My little world champion," reads the model's comment.
