Formula 1 sensation Lando Norris was recently seen enjoying the Monaco Grand Prix weekend in the company of social media influencer Alix Earle.
Norris, who currently holds the title of reigning drivers’ champion at 26, was observed with the 25-year-old American influencer on numerous occasions during the glamorous events in the opulent Principality.
Their apparent closeness has generated quite a buzz within the Formula 1 paddock, fueling speculation about a potential romance.
Earle, previously linked to NFL icon Tom Brady earlier this year, was spotted dancing alongside the British racing ace at La Guérite. This upscale beachside restaurant, located on the island of Sainte-Marguerite near Cannes, is a popular haunt for the elite due to its discreet setting.
The duo reportedly spent three lively hours at the venue, accompanied by their entourage, who enjoyed an evening filled with vibrant energy and abundant bottle service, according to TMZ.
Adding to the intrigue, Norris’s former girlfriend, Portuguese model Margarida Corceiro, reportedly unfollowed Alix Earle on social media, further igniting the swirling rumors.

Norris has been dating Corceiro on and off since 2023 and she was by his side during the emotional title-winning scenes in Abu Dhabi last year.
Norris and the actress, who used to go out with Portuguese soccer star Joao Felix, previously broke up in 2024 before reconciling.
Fresh rumours emerged back in February that the couple had gone their separate ways yet again – just two months after Norris claimed his first F1 championship title.
Yet, speculation of yet another reunion ramped up in April when the pair were spotted at a soccer game together, suggesting their tumultuous relationship was back on.
However, Norris’s recent flirtations in the South of France have cast doubt over the status of their relationship.
Meanwhile, Earle, who is believed to have attended the Grand Prix as a guest of athletic wear brand Alo, broke up with NFL player Braxton Berrios in December after two years of dating.
The skincare brand founder was linked to another NFL icon earlier this year when she was spotted enjoying a flirtatious New Year’s Eve with former quarterback Brady.
They were later spotted together at a Super Bowl party in San Francisco back in February, where the former NFL star and stunning influencer danced the night away.

However, it appears her romance with the seven-time Super Bowl winner fizzled out as Earle swore of football players in a YouTube video shared in April.
A source also suggested to the Daily Mail in March that the retired signal caller’s fling with the social media sensation wasn’t serious.
The insider claimed that the father-of-three wasn’t looking to settle down anytime soon.
‘Tom isn’t dating anyone specifically,’ they revealed. ‘He’s not really looking for that. Dating isn’t something ever on his mind.
‘He’s kind of awkward when it comes to dating. Surprisingly, he doesn’t really have great game. Usually it’s a woman making the first move with him, which would surprise a lot of people. He lets them take the lead a lot of the time.
‘Tom and Alix are not exclusively dating. It’s a hooking up and having fun type of thing, at least for now, but she is totally his type.’
It seems the TikTok star has now turned her attentions to a different type of athlete. In fact, Earle admitted in a 2023 livestream that she had slid into an anonymous F1 driver’s DMs.
Earle failed to name names at the time but her recent appearance alongside Norris has raised eyebrows, doing little to dispel the rumors.

Despite triumphing last year, Norris has endured a frustrating 2026 season so far in the McLaren.
In fact, his outing with Earle may have been the only highlight of his Monaco Grand Prix weekend.
He and his team mate Oscar Piastri qualified in P8 and P7 respectively but Norris lost out to Pierre Gasly on the opening lap.
Norris was then forced to retire from the race after reporting problems with power, marking yet another Grand Prix without points.
