WAGs (Wives and Girlfriends) aren’t just associated with football, basketball, or soccer; the term extends far beyond the glamorous women you may often see on your screens. With the rise in global popularity of Formula 1, it’s no surprise that there’s added interest in the personal lives of the drivers. The success of the Netflix series “Drive to Survive” and the addition of more North American races have propelled the sport globally and fashion lovers can’t deny they are loving the chance to see what the WAGs are wearing every race weekend.
F1 WAGs have significantly contributed to the fame of their partners and the overall celebrity status of the sport. Fans love to see the style of the girlfriends every race weekend, as they live a lifestyle that many dream of. Jetting across the globe on private planes and residing in places like Monaco, these drivers and their WAGs are celebrities people want to watch and emulate. —Alexandra Aulicino
What the WAGs are Wearing
Rebecca Donaldson
Rebecca is the girlfriend of Ferrari driver Carlos Sainz. The Scottish model and Spanish driver have been seen together since 2023, sparking much fan discussion as it was shortly after Carlos split from his long-time girlfriend. Nonetheless, Carlos, known as the “smooth operator,” and his new girlfriend have won fans over. Rebecca is a successful model with all the cool-it-girl vibes you’d expect. She is often seen in trendy designer outfits but keeps her look simple and chic (think model off-duty). At the 2024 Monaco Grand Prix, Rebecca was spotted wearing The Attico Mini Dress, perfectly exemplifying her usual style.
Carmen Montero Mundt
Carmen is the girlfriend of Mercedes driver George Russell. Of Spanish/British descent, Carmen works in finance in London, where she met British driver George Russell. The couple is often seen together but maintains a private personal life. Carmen is known for her classic, quiet luxury, old-money style, which is extremely popular right now. At the 2024 Spanish Grand Prix, Carmen was seen in a head-to-toe Tommy Hilfiger set, a brand the couple often collaborates with. This partnership aligns well with her personal style.
