Lando Norris and Magui Corceiro: F1 Star’s Romance Ends

The Formula 1 world witnessed a championship victory and a high-profile relationship blossom in 2025, but just months into the new year, both have seen a shift. Lando Norris, the 26-year-old McLaren driver who secured his first world title in December, has reportedly split from his girlfriend, Portuguese actress and model Magui Corceiro, 23. The news, initially reported on Thursday evening and confirmed in subsequent days, marks the end of an on-again, off-again romance that began in 2023.

The breakup surfaced following a conversation between Norris and fellow F1 driver Carlos Sainz Jr. During pre-season testing in Bahrain. A TikTok video captured Sainz Jr. Inquiring about the status of the relationship, to which Norris responded with a simple “No,” confirming he is now “a single man.” This confirmation followed earlier reports and speculation fueled by Corceiro’s absence from a team gathering celebrating Norris’s championship win.

The relationship gained significant attention after Norris and Corceiro shared a kiss in the paddock immediately following his championship victory in Abu Dhabi. The moment quickly went viral, widely interpreted as a public acknowledgment of their relationship. At the time, Corceiro expressed her happiness, stating, “I completely forgot the camera and I didn’t think about it at all at that moment. There wasn’t really a rule to make a relationship public. At the moment, the kiss made sense. I am very, very, very happy and that’s all that matters.”

Corceiro is a well-known figure in Portugal, boasting over two million followers on Instagram and 800,000 on TikTok. Beyond her social media presence, she has appeared in Portuguese television series and participated in the local version of “Dancing with the Stars.” Her previous relationship with footballer João Félix, a teammate of Cristiano Ronaldo, also garnered considerable media attention.

The timing of the split, so soon after the high of the championship win, has raised eyebrows. A source speaking to The Sun indicated that signs of a growing distance between the couple emerged after the Abu Dhabi race. The source noted Corceiro’s absence from the Bahrain team gathering as a key indicator, stating, “They drifted apart after his win last season. The biggest hint came in Bahrain as he and his team continued testing ahead of the new season.”

While the details surrounding the split remain largely private, the confirmation from Norris and corroborating reports suggest the relationship has run its course. The news adds another chapter to the often-scrutinized personal lives of Formula 1 drivers, and marks the end of a relationship that captivated fans during a period of significant professional success for Norris.
