Hottest Formula 1 WAGS

The race cars have been stashed away until the Australian Grand Prix in March, but until then, here’s five Formula 1 WAGS who’ve set the paddock alight.

Fernando Alonso-Viki Odintcova

Two-time world champion Fernando Alonso finished 10th in 2016, having spent most of the year being mediocre.

He also split with fiancée Lara Alvarez, although not publicly announcing the news; instead she appeared without her engagement ring.

However, the Spanish driver has been linked to Russian model Viki Odintcova. The 21-year old has over 3 million followers on Instagram.

Kimi Raikkonen- Minttu Virtanen

The 2007 World Champion made things official with Finnish underwear model Minttu Virtane last year in Italy.

She was working as a flight attendant when she met Raikkonen and the couple have a young son together named Robin.

Jenson Button-Brittny Ward

Jenson Button called time on his F1 career at the end of last season, but rumour has it that he might be in line for a return to replace retiring champion Nico Rosberg at Mercedes.

Until then though, he’ll be spending time with American girlfriend Brittny Ward. The couple are frequently pictured exercising together

Valtteri Bottas-Emilia Pikkarainen

Valtteri Bottas is another who could replace Rosberg at Mercedes and he’ll be spending the offseason with Olympic swimmer Emilia Pikkarainen.

The pair have been together since 2010 and got married last year in Helsinki.

Bernie Ecclestone-Fabiana Flosi

Formula One’s chief executive has had three wives, the latest being Fabiana Flosi, 47 years his junior.

The business woman is seven inches taller than the F1 supremo and was the vice president of marketing for the Brazilian Grand Prix. She was kidnapped by Brazilian gangsters last year and was held for a £28 million ransom. She was later freed by police, after ten days of being held hostage.
