So, since we love nothing more than catering to your passions, here is a third collection of the women in the passenger seat of these NASCAR/F1 drivers.
Cora Schumacher
It can’t have been easy to have been married to a brother who did not get as much of the limelight, but it suited Cora Schumacher perfectly. In 2001, Cora married Formula One driver Ralf Schumacher. The couple had a son together called David Schumacher.
Cora is multi-talented. She is an actress, model, and presenter, and like her former husband, was a car-racing driver. In 2004, she left the sport to take care of former hubby Ralf to look after him after he had a serious accident. Sadly, after 14 years of marriage, the two divorced in 2015.
Vivian Sibold
In 2014, Formula One driver Nico Rosberg married interior designer Vivian Sibold in Monaco. The next year, the designer fell pregnant with the couple’s first child, Alaïa. After that, the former Mercedes driver announced his retirement. And that was good timing.
The following year, Sibold fell pregnant with their second child, Naila. Since Rosberg retired, the couple has moved to Ibiza, where Sibold still does interior designing and where they run a creamery shop specializing in ice cream. We’re happy to report they’re still going strong.
Crystal Marsh
There were plenty of heartbreaks when NASCAR racer, Alex Bowman, revealed that he was, in fact, in a relationship. Bowman announced in late 2021 that he was in a relationship with Crystal Marsh. Though not much is not known about the driver’s girlfriend, and though she goes out of her way to keep a low profile, it has done little to stop the stream of curiosity.
What we know is that Marsh and her family are fans of NASCAR and that her brother got her to attend her first event. We also know that she is a flight attendant.
Gianna Tulio
Unfortunately, the heartthrob in the No. 12 Ford Mustang, Ryan Blaney, is not single. He is currently hitched up with the gorgeous Gianna Tulio. And if you have any doubts about her beauty credentials, she was crowned the 2021 Miss Hooters International.
Blaney and Tulio have been in a long-term relationship, so we will be looking their way soon for wedding bells. Tulio is a model. Unlike Blaney, Tulio prefers horse racing to racing cars – she even owns her own horse, which she got from Leatherman Lane.
Hanna Prater
Sebastian Vettel is one of the most iconic Formula One drivers since he has been the champion four times. And here we finally have proof. After asking Vettel who he credits with all his success, the German driver named his wife, Hanna Prater. Actually, they had only been dating then, but their story started in high school.
In 2019, Vettel tied the knot. Apart from supporting her now-husband throughout his racing career, we also know that Prater was an industrial design student. The couple now has two children, Emily and Matilda Vettel.
Kelly Piquet
Max Verstappen might be one of the youngest Formula One to enter the champions, but we’re not only interested in his racing but also his love life. We know that Verstappen is currently linked to the Brazilian model, Kelly Piquet. It looks like good genes run in Piquet’s family.
Not only was her mother a model, but her father and brother were also F1 racers. It seems like a match made in heaven for Verstappen, especially since Piquet is his biggest fan and cheers him on in every race.
Courtney Force
Graham Rahal is best known as the No.15 driver in the IndyCar. In 2015, Rahal married Courtney Force. And his wife certainly lives up to her name. She is a retired drag racer. Her father was none other than the legendary John Force, who won roughly 150 drag races.
The two seem to have a lot in common, as Rahal’s father was also a racer back in the day. In 2020, the couple had their first child. Two years later, they had their second child. Perhaps, we can expect more professional racers when these two kids grow up.
Hailey McDermott
Simon Pagenaud may be from France, but the driver’s dreams have been coming true in the USA. In 2016, he took home the IndyCar championship title, and later in 2019, he won the Indianapolis 500.
Following his win in 2019, the professional racer decided to marry his girlfriend of seven years, Hailey McDermott. The couple had a dazzling wedding in sunny California. Not much is known about the couple, but Pagenaud has confirmed that all his dreams have come true.
Makenzie Steiner
You’re probably never heard of Makenzie Steiner, and that is just the way Santino Ferrucci wants to keep it. Ferrucci is better known for being the driver of the No 14 Chevrolet for A.J. Foyt Racing in the IndyCar Series.
He has been recently introduced to NASCAR as a test driver for the No. 26 Toyota Supra for Sam Hunt Racing – so watch this space. As said, not much is known about his current girlfriend, Makenzie Steiner, except that the two seem to have a taste of adventure.
Riley Flynn
Colton Herta is the youngest-ever driver to race and win in the IndyCar Series. Since the driver is still very young, he is not yet married, however, he's not single either. He is currently linked to journalism student Riley Flynn. The two started dating in April 2018.
At 18 years old, Herta became the youngest race winner in the IndyCar Series. This was in 2019 when the couple had already been together for a year. If that is not the sign of a promising couple, then surely Flynn attending and cheering him on at races is enough confirmation.
Louise Gjørup
Kevin Magnussen is more associated with Formula One than the IndyCar Series, but he did have a stint with IndyCar last year after Felix Rosenqvist got injured. The driver for Haas is married to Louise Gjørup. Very little is known about Gjørup as she keeps a very low profile on social media.
We do know that following Magnussen’s race in the Grand Prix in Mexico in 2018, he proposed to Gjørup. A year later, they got married. In 2021, the couple welcomed a daughter.
Emma Davies
Scott Dixon is a familiar face in the IndyCar Series. Dixon has gone down in history with having the second most wins in US open-wheel car racing. In February 2008, Dixon tied the knot with Emma Davies. Interestingly, Davies also has a history in sports, as she was the 800m champion in the British Isles.
The year after they got married, the couple welcomed a daughter. The couple has subsequently welcomed two more children — a daughter in 2011 and a son in 2019.
Isabel Hernaez
Unfortunately, the Formula One driver, Carlos Sainz Jr., is not single. We don’t know who should be more disappointed, the individuals after Sainz or those after Isabel Hernaez, who is just as stunning. Like many women involved with professional racers, Harnaez keeps to herself.
We have done a bit of digging and found that the two have been an item since 2017. We also know that she works as a press officer and has a bilingual degree in Journalism. While the two have been going steady for years now, they haven’t gotten married or welcomed any children yet.
Heather Carpenter
Known as Ed Carpenter’s second half and lifelong partner, Heather Carpenter worked as a nurse who was responsible for giving physical treatments to racers. This was how she met Ed Carpenter. The two actually have a sweet story.
Would you believe that Ed had to fake an illness to have an excuse to ask her out? The couple has three kids, Ryder, Cruz, and Makenna, and the entire family is their father’s greatest supporter. Of course, Heather has been his No.1 fan and nurse from the early days.
Marion Jollès Grosjean
Romain Grosjean is more commonly known for being in the No. 28 Honda for Andretti Autosport. However, the Swiss-French driver has had a long history in the sport since he has also raced in Formula One with Lotus, Haas, and a short stint with Renault. Marion Jollès is a TV personality known for co-hosting “Automoto” and “F1 à la Une”.
Like her husband, Jollès is multi-talented and has written two novels. On June 2021, Romain and Marion married. Since then, the couple has welcomed three children; the family currently lives in Chamonix, a commune in the French Alps.
Caroline Bjoerkqvist
Felix Rosenqvist has one of the most dazzling records in motor racing. The racer has been in the Indianapolis 500, the IndyCar Series, Formula One, Formula E, and Indy Lights. The talented driver is currently paired with Caroline Bjoerkqvist. ‘Felix’ means ‘lucky’, and we certainly think so, as Bjoerkqvist is stunning. Though both Bjoerkqvist and Rosenqvist hail from Sweden, the two live in Indiana.
We don’t know much about Caroline Bjoerkqvist, but she starred in the reality TV show "Playmakers," which was filmed in Sweden. Back in the US, Bjoerkqvist can be spotted by the track supporting her partner.
Elizabeth Cannon
This married couple is a power duo. What else can you expect from names such as Will Power and Elizabeth Cannon? He was an IndyCar Series Champion in 2014 and even more recently in 2022 and an Indianapolis 500 champion in 2018.
Elizabeth Cannon hails from Texas. She worked in public relations and served as a rep for his racing team, Walker Racing Team. After tying the knot in Hawaii in 2010, the two had a son.
Heidi Berger
Daniel Riccardo might be our favorite Australian Formula One driver despite keeping us in the dark about his love life until September 2022. Only then, the F1 man felt it was the right time to let us know who he is dating. And unsurprisingly, his current girlfriend also is connected to the world of motor racing.
Her father is Gerhard Berger, an Austrian driver who used to race for Ferrari. Heidi has her own ambitions. Though she is only in her 20s, the young Berger is an up-and-coming actress, so look out to see Daniel’s girlfriend hit the silver screen soon.
Silvana Giaffone Barrichello
Rubens Barrichello will forever be known as Michael Schumacher’s partner at Ferrari. However, for a longer time, Rubens was partnered-up (and we really mean married to) Silvana Giaffone Barrichello. Like many others, Silvana Giaffone comes from a family of racecar drivers.
Her cousin Felipe Giaffone drives for the Brazilian Indy Car, while her uncles Affonso Giaffone Filho and Zeco Giaffone are also Brazilian racing champions. Sadly, this couple’s 22-year marriage came to an end in 2019. Yet, both of their sons, Fernando and Eduardo, have taken an interest in motor racing.
Minttu Räikkönen
It looks like “The Iceman” Kimi Räikkönen finally settled down. Many thought that Räikkönen would never settle down, as the Formula One driver was known for living it up and enjoying his freedom. Even when he moved to Alfa Romeo, Minttu was still a loyal fan of his.
Minttu Räikkönen (nee Virtanen) is a fitness model. She and the F1 driver married in Siena, Italy, in 2016. The pair also has two children, a son, Robin, and a daughter, Rianna.
Marlene Knaus
Niki Lauda has one of the saddest stories in the history of motor racing. Lauda sustained serious burns after a crash in Nuremberg. Lauda’s story and the accident were the topics of the movie “Rush.” Lauda met Knaus before his accident.
Though the Venezuelan Knaus was a model and could probably get any man she wanted, she remained loyal to Lauda even after the accident. Lauda and Knaus split 15 years later, but we can safely say that Knaus’s love and support helped Lauda through some of his darkest days.
Kristen Yeley
Kristen Yeley is the wife of J.J. Yeley and dabbles in racing herself. In fact, for the past several years, she’s been participating in the Better Half Dash race for charity – a race that she won back in 2014.
Kristen has been around the sport for her entire life, as her parents raced in NASCAR themselves. The two live in Charlotte, North Carolina, with their daughter, and according to LinkedIn, Kristen is listed as a “full-time mom.”
Raquel del Rosario
When Raquel del Rosario was just 14 years old, she was already a talented songwriter. A few years later, she joined a Celtic-based music group. Later, she would go on to become the lead vocalist for a Spanish band called El Sueño de Morfeo – which translates to “Morpheus’ Dream.”
She married Formula One driver Fernando Alonso in 2006, and the two moved to Lugano, Switzerland, soon after. They got divorced five years later, and she is now remarried to Galician filmmaker Pedro Castro, with whom she has two sons.
Ingrid Vandebosch-Gordon
Belgian model Ingrid Vandebosch won the Elite Look of the Year award in 1990 before she married racecar driver Jeff Gordon in 2006. She worked on several major international campaigns and appeared in magazines like "Vogue," "Elle," and "Marie Claire." In 2010, the couple welcomed their second child.
They own several homes, including one in Charlotte, North Carolina, one in New York City, and property in Colorado. These days, the majority of driving Jeff does is when he’s dropping his kids and their friends at, or home from, school!
Kim Burton
Kim Burton has been married to driver Jeff Burton for around three decades. They have a teenage daughter named Paige, and a son, Harrison, who’s interested in following in the family's footsteps of racing!
When asked how to maintain such a long-lasting marriage, she said, “My best advice for happiness would be to compromise, but you really have to have a genuine love for someone starting.”
Samantha Busch
Kyle Busch has been married to his wife Samantha now for over a decade. The two tied the knot in a fabulous (and very public) NASCAR-themed wedding broadcast on television. Busch earned himself the nickname, The Candy Man, due to his major sponsor being Mars, Incorporated. When these two got married, they already knew that they wanted to have children in their lives in the future.
But things didn’t go as smoothly as planned, and they decided to share their infertility struggles with the world. They went through the process of IVF to conceive their now four-year-old son, Brexton, and have considered surrogacy to have a second.
Christina Surer
This Swiss race car driver has been getting behind the wheel professionally since driving in the Ford Superseries in 2002. Aside from racing, she’s also done some TV hosting and modeling and even posed for men’s magazines.
She met and married Formula One driver Marc Surer in the late ‘90s, though they called it quits in 2000. Twelve years later, she got engaged to another racecar driver, Martin Tomczyk.
Tara Meador
A few months after A.J. Allmendinger’s 2012 split from ex-wife Lynne Kush, he met architectural designer Tara Meador at the Indy 500.
They hit it off, and they have been going strong ever since. In fact, there are rumors that the long-time pair will be walking down the aisle soon.
Nicki Minaj
In 2019, rapper Nicki Minaj walked down the aisle with Kenneth Petty, who goes all the way back to her childhood. But before those two were together, she was spotted vacationing in Dubai with driver Lewis Hamilton.
They were also seen together several times at multiple events. Although neither of the two ever announced it officially, it was widely regarded that there was something more than just friendship going on between them.
Crystal Hornish
Crystal Hornish is married to the retired driver, Sam Hornish, Jr. The two have three kids together; two daughters named Eliza and Addison and a son named Sam III.
Eliza was born in 2010, which was called the “year of the baby” in NASCAR since various WAGs gave birth during that time.
Priscila Perales
Priscila Perales is a former beauty queen and model from Mexico. In 2006, she made the top ten in the Miss Universe pageant. Then, the year afterward, she won the title of Miss International, making her the first Mexican to do so.
Perales retired from modeling in 2014, and four years later, she married racecar driver Adrian Fernandez.
Adriana Henao
During the end of the Indy 500 in 2014, ESPN and ABC created a mini-controversy when they utilized split-screen tech to show not the nail-biting race but Brazilian racer Helio Castroneves' lady Adriana Henao.
Maybe they knew Castroneves was going to lose. We can't blame the producers for wanting to get her on-screen, but maybe they should have waited until the race was over. Castroneves and Henao have been together for some time, and they also share a daughter. She's a looker, that's for sure, but is she really split-screen worthy? Castroneves thinks so, but most racing fans would rather see the cars.
Anna de Ferran
Anna has been a part of the racing biz ever since her father, Gil de Ferran, a French-born Brazilian driver, started winning in the nineties.
Anna was spotted hanging out with young driving phenom Sage Karam at the Cab Day Pit Stop competition, and while their relationship didn't go the distance, they still topped the lists of racing's most attractive couples.
Patricia Driscoll
Kurt Busch may have ended up marrying Ashley Van Metre in the end, but she wasn't the only dime-piece that he had by his side during his time as a single man. Another was Patricia Driscoll, a gorgeous blonde who had a young son that got along well with Busch, despite the eventual end of the relationship.
While they were still wondering if things would work out, Driscoll was the Executive Director of the Armed Forces Foundation.
Morgan Bell
Christopher Bell got his start in racing when a family friend introduced him to the sport as a teenager, and he's still racing and doing well. He's married to Morgan Bell (nee Kemenah) and has been since February of 2020.
They were engaged in December of 2018 after spending four and a half years together.
Jennifer Jo Cobb
This next couple met when one of them was a full-time racer, and the other was a crew chief, but it was Jennifer who was behind the wheel. They met in 2012 when Eddie Troconis was chief for Cobb's Xfinity Series team, and three years later, they got married.
Cobb has her own racing team (“Jennifer Jo Cobb Racing”) and is still racing in a number of different series, while her husband is still a crew chief for AM Racing's No. 22 truck in the Truck Series.
Jami McDowell
Michael McDowell is in the spotlight of the NASCAR world, right? This is thanks to his impressive wins as well as his streak of top finishes. McDowell is also winning as a family man alongside his wife, Jami McDowell.
They married all the way back in 2004 and have since added four children to their team: Trace, Emma, Rylie, and Lucas. Jami has had her husband's back ever since he started racing with NASCAR in 2007 and will be there by his side no matter what.
Taylor DiBenedetto
In 2015, Taylor married Matt DiBenedetto, and she immediately got to work helping him keep his sanity. He's been up-front about the stresses of the racing season, but he's also been clear that Taylor has been his rock when it comes to the rough patches of his career. He may put on a strong front, but it all comes from her.
If their Instagram posts show us anything, it's that they truly love each other. We all need someone strong by our side, and Taylor is filling that role for Matt.
Haley Dillon
Ty Dillon's brother Austin might have more NASCAR wins, but neither one of them has the edge when it comes to the ladies at their sides. Ty has still won four races in a little over two hundred, and he also has a beautiful wife named Haley.
The pair married in 2014, and Haley gave birth to their first child, daughter Oakley, in November of 2017, and then their son Kapton came in October of 2020. The pair had struggled with infertility after they had Oakley, so the addition of Kapton was a blessing. They refer to him as their “rainbow baby.”
Katie Cassill
NASCAR drivers have surprisingly busy schedules, what with the immense number of races they have to go through – as well as training, endorsement deals, and everything else.
Despite all this, Katie Cassill jumped right in when racer Landon Cassill asked her if she was willing to go through life with him. The two got married in December 2012, and then they welcomed their first child in 2015. They named their son Beckham. In 2017 they had a daughter named Daphne.
Amanda Sadler
Elliot Sadler is one of only thirty-six NASCAR drivers to have a win in each of NASCAR's top three races. His wife, Amanda Sadler, joined the team in 2009, and they now have a couple of kids to increase their ranks.
They gave birth to a son named Wyatt in 2010 and a daughter named Austin in 2012. Not only is Amanda a wife and mother, but she's also a teacher. While Elliot might not need a lot of help being a famous driver, he still needs someone to keep him grounded, and a teacher-wife is the perfect person to do that.
Sylvia Suarez
For a long time, rumors flew that Mexican driver Daniel Suarez was married to fellow Mexican Sylvia, but this was never officially confirmed. They were, at the very least, involved, as your grandmother might say, but however far the relationship went, it has now ended.
While the two were together, she was, at the very least, a supportive partner for Daniel, showing up in numerous photos with him and celebrating with him after he won several of his races. Yes, we realize that her name might not actually be Suarez, but we aren't even sure if they were married, so we have to give ourselves a little bit of wiggle room.
Ashley Allgaier
With an astounding fifteen wins in only seventy-seven races, Justin “Little Gator” Allgaier is the racer to watch if you're into NASCAR. His wife Ashley has been there since the start of his racing career, and the two got married in 2006. With the love of his life cheering him on from the stands, it's no wonder he goes for the win every time he's behind the wheel.
Their family has grown since 2006, with the addition of their daughter Harper in 2013. In 2020, the family announced that 2021 would see the arrival of another little gator. Willow was born in May of 2021, and the family, according to Ashley, is now complete.
Jacquelyn Ragan
David Ragan is an extremely family-oriented person, so it should come as no surprise that he has a solid relationship with his wife, Jacquelyn. The two married in 2012 and added a pair of daughters, Julia, born in 2014, and Meredith, born in 2016. Jacquelyn and David maintain close relationships with David's parents and his older brother Adam.
David comes from a racing family – his father, Kent, was a NASCAR driver until an accident forced him away from the track. David boasts over five hundred professional races and has plenty of big wins.
Emma Buescher
As a lover of four-wheelers, fishing, and outdoor fun, Emma decided that champion driver Chris Buescher couldn't be a better pick for a husband, and the two got married in 2018. Despite his skill behind the wheel, Chris was nervous during the wedding's first dance.
In an interview, he said he couldn't dance or even sway from side to side. He ended up going with a dance coach, and while they didn't do a dance for ages, Chris at least looked like he knew what he was doing.
Heather DesRochers
We shouldn't be surprised that racer drivers end up coming together in matrimony. Such was the case with Heather DesRochers and Ryan Preece. Heather met her future husband at the Stafford Motor Speedway in 2009 and even got to race against him in 2011 at the SK Modified Series tournament.
Preece ended up winning the tourney, DesRochers won Rookie of the Year, and they both went home with something even more valuable: a love that could end up lasting a lifetime. The two got married in 2107. You are now allowed to “awww.”
Marissa Briscoe
Marissa and Chase Briscoe got married in 2019, but things haven't been a fairy tale for them since then. With Chase as a driver in several events under the NASCAR name, he wants to win, but becoming a father has proved to be a challenge.
Marissa and Chase have been transparent on social media, declaring they have problems with infertility. However, in March 2021, the pair were finally able to announce Marissa's pregnancy.
Kelly Cassidy
Every once in a while, there are real fairy tales when it comes to love. Third-generation driver Corey LaJoie was following in the footsteps of his father and grandfather as a full-time NASCAR Cup Series competitor.
He was driving at the Pocono Raceway when he met Kelly Cassidy, who had made an impromptu trip to the raceway with a few friends. LaJoie won the race, and the two had a chance to meet. Thanks to the internet, the two were able to reunite and soon fell in love, despite the travel time between New York and North Carolina. Now together, they have a son named Levi.
Elizabeth Hill
From his start at eight years old, driving go-karts, to sitting behind the wheel of a Chevrolet Camaro in the NASCAR Cup Series, Quin Houff has been destined for the track.
Since their wedding in 2019 in Mount Sidney, Virginia, he's had his wife, Elizabeth Hill cheering him on at each and every race. Ever since the wedding, Houff has referred to Elizabeth as “My better Huoff,” which is just the kind of thing that we want to see out of a relationship. Liz loves horses, dogs, and, of course, cheering on her husband while he's driving.
Elyshia Rennison
It's never too late to find your soul mate, as Elyshia Rennison and Derrick Cope can tell you. Cope's first wife was Renee White, but it seems the second time's the charm. Rennison is the Marketing Director of StarCom Racing and most likely met Derrick in that official capacity since Derrick is the team manager of StarCom.
Cope is used to finding himself in the victory circle – he won the 1990 Daytona 500 race and still finds himself racing now as a part-time NASCAR driver. There's no doubt he was going to keep trying for his chance at lasting love.
Taylor Stier
As a full-time driver with NASCAR, John Hunter Nemechek doesn't like to take things slow. When he met Taylor Stier, a fitness and fashion influencer on Instagram and LikeToKnow.com, he knew there wasn't any time to waste.
The two got married in October 2020 at Pippin Hill Farm & Vineyards in North Garden, Virginia, and the couple is now based in Charlotte, North Carolina. When she isn't supporting her husband on the track, Taylor is taking care of their daughter, Aspen Palmer, who was born in March 2021.
Tatum Gaughan
Tatum Gaughan has been on a team with her racing husband, Brendan since they got married in August of 2007. Gaughan has raced in everything from off-road and pickup-track races to pavement stock car races in the late nineties.
He was a part-time driver from 2017 until 2020, and Tatum has been there the entire way until his final retirement. They had their first son in 2010 and then their second two years later.
Laura Frame
Laura Frame and Bradley “Reed” Sorenson got married in April of 2013; they have a pair of children: Eli, born in November of 2018, and Ella, born earlier. Sorenson and Frame have been together for some time, ever since Sorenson started racing with NASCAR in 2004 as part of the Busch Series and went on to win four times.
He also took home the 2003 ASA National Tour Rookie of the Year. He's been a part-time racer and a spotter ever since and is now happy as a family man with Laura by his side.
Caitlin Himmelsbach
While Joey Gase might not be the most impressive driver on this list, he still has something pretty special on his resume: he's the youngest driver to ever win the Hawkeye Downs Speedway late model championship. It took place in 2009, and he was only sixteen. Caitlin Himmelsbach married him in December of 2018 after announcing their engagement in February 2017.
They welcomed twins Jace and Carson in December 2019. The babies were born at a little under five pounds each. Gase might not have ended up in the winner's circle as a driver, but he's succeeded in his family life.
Jessica McLeod
B.J. McLeod isn't just a NASCAR driver. He also co-owns the B.J. McLeod Motorsports and Live Fast Motorsports racing teams. He's now a part-time NASCAR Cup, Xfinity, and Camping World Truck Series driver, and he's also a husband.
His wife, Jessica, is a fitness influencer, model, and coach. According to her Twitter bio, she is an “NPC National Qualified Figure Competitor.” She works alongside her husband as another co-owner of the B.J. McLeod Motorsports competitive team.
Kendall McReynolds
Jordan Anderson and his fiancee Kendall McReynolds aren't married yet, but they have a wedding date set for April 16th, 2022, in Georgia. The couple announced their engagement in January of 2021, with Jordan making a happy announcement on Twitter.
The amazing woman he mentions is the daughter of two-time Daytona 500-winning crew chief and analyst Larry McReynolds, so it's a match made in NASCAR heaven. Anderson has his own team, Jordan Anderson Racing, and races full-time in NASCAR Xfinity and part-time in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series.
Brandi Nicole Newcomb
As the son of driver Ward Burton, nephew of Jeff Burton, and cousin of Harrison Burton, Jeb Burton has a lot of legacy behind him. He races in all three of NASCAR's national series but is best known for his Xfinity and Camping World Truck Series races. He married his longtime girlfriend Brandi Nicole Newcomb on January 11th, 2020 after getting engaged in 2018.
Brandi and Jeb are both lovers of the natural world and spend their free time hiking, hunting, and exploring. They say opposites attract, but sometimes people who get together are pretty close to identical.
Hayley Burnash
These two are really just still kids when you think about it, but they're still working their way toward marriage. Hayley Burnash is the girlfriend of driver Erik Jones (2015 NASCAR Camping World Truck Series champ and full-time NASCAR Cup Series driver) or, at least, was.
The two had been seen together in their social media posts, and Hayley had been living with Erik while she was working at a vet clinic. However, the relationship didn't make the distance – Erik is now seeing dirt track racer Holly Shelton.
Kenzie Ruston
Kenzie Ruston didn't just marry a NASCAR driver – she is one! She last competed in the 2015 NASCAR K&N Pro Series East and started her career in the 2011 ARCA Racing series.
Her biggest accomplishment was during the 2014 Iowa Speedway race, where she took second. She's married to Daniel Hemric, a full-time NASCAR Camping World Truck Series and Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series racer. The two racers got engaged on July 28th, 2015, and got married two years later in Jamaica. They have two children together, Rhen and Millie.
Stacy Marlar
Mike Marlar has sacrificed a lot to compete and win. He's done dirt racing tournaments, the three main NASCAR series, and he even won the 2018 World of Outlaws Late Model Series and the 2020 Butterball Memorial. But he knows his wife has sacrificed more.
When they got married more than ten years ago, she was a civil engineer. Since then, she's switched to being a teacher in order to have more time for travel. The pair also has multiple children.
Sarah Wood
Long before he had the good fortune of meeting Sarah Wood, Shane Golobic was an experienced driver. Even prior to his NASCAR career, he won multiple track championships, including the 2014 California Spring Car Civil War Series. Sarah entered the picture at about the same time, and the two got married in October 2018 in California.
Shane took a break from his racing to have a fun honeymoon in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. The pair has a daughter and a young baby boy.
Johanna Robbins
Johanna Robbins, AKA Johanna Long, as she went during her single days, is a Snowball Derby champion who started racing at the age of eight, when her father used to take her to the track to race karts. Since she was five, she’d been going with him, but he didn’t let her get behind the wheel until she was a bit older.
In 2009, she was racing in NASCAR, where she had 27 top-ten finishes in 38 events. In 2016, she and fellow driver/Kyle Busch Motorsports engineer Hunter Robbins said their “I dos.”
Robin McCall
Robin McCall was the second woman to compete in NASCAR’s Winston Cup Series in the early ’80s and the youngest in history to qualify for an event. In 1985, she married fellow driver Wally Dallenbach Jr., with whom she has three kids.
After having kids, McCall transitioned out of racing slowly but surely. These days, she works as a driving instructor at events for auto manufacturers and moonlights in precision/stunt driving for commercials and films.
Katie Kenseth
Driver Matt Kenseth first met his wife, farm girl Katie, in the late 1990s when she was working at motel cleaning rooms and working at the little store next door. Of course, she was just a teenager at the time, so they went their separate ways.
But when the two ran into each other at a wedding when they were a bit older, things were different. They hit it off and had their own wedding in 2000. They have a daughter together, Kaylin, and raise Matt’s older son, Ross, who he had from a previous relationship.

Before he popped the question, he’d even asked her father if it was alright that he asked for his daughter’s hand in marriage – and you can guess how that went!
