Gay Nation's 2021 Formula One Top List
5 min read

The 2021 Formula One season kicks off at Bahrain’s International Circuit in Sakhir this weekend and it will see a whole new group of drivers that will join those that survived the great cull and movement in 2020.

Alongside the new drivers that are making their debut this year, we see the return of a former World Champion, all of them are in the list below as Gay Nation releases its list of the Hottest Formula One Drivers of 2021

Forget about being a Ferrari fan or having the feels for McLaren, these drivers get the F1 juices flowing just like the latest Netflix show Drive to Survive.

If you love our choices or just think we may have left someone out feel free to let us know as our lists are always just our thoughts and not involving anyone else.

Check out Gay Nation’s Hottest Formula Drivers of 2021 below.

1. Lando Norris (UK) – McLaren

Lando would have to be our team’s favourite but he is also our reader’s favourite. 8 out of 10 viewers that read our 2019 list found us via a search for Lando Norris. Although he seems like he’s been our favourite for so long, 2021 will actually be only his third year racing F1 and yet has grown so much in and outside the car.

A worldwide Twitch star, Lando, 21, has developed his own business, merchandise and will this year be joined by Aussie Daniel Riccardo which will surely allow us to see more of Lando’s cute smile (once those pesky masks disappear).

2. Mick Schumacher (Germany) – Haas

The son of the greatest formula one driver in history Michael Schumacher, Mick and everything to lose this year and very little to gain. Everyone will be comparing him to his father’s deeds and he is such a lovely quiet boy I can’t see him dealing too well with Gunter Steiner’s rants when things don’t go too well.

But in saying all of that we can sit back and just admire his cute boyish looks and smile and hope he gets lots of air time on the coverage so we can swoon every time he comes on the screen.

3. Pierre Gasly (France) – Alpha Tauri

Pierre was treated so badly by Red Bull in 2019 when replaced by Alex Albon but he has turned everything around and this emotional Frenchman is now thriving at Alpha Tauri and getting better looking every weekend.

We have laughed and cried with Pierre throughout the last few years and this year we hope having a new teammate, Japanese rookie Yuki Tsunoda, Pierre will be able to flourish and continue to fight for podium spots.

4. Lance Stroll (Canada) – Aston Martin

The Canadian hottie entered F1 in 2017 and was around as a Williams driver way before his father took over funding the Force India team that became Racing Point and took on Lance as their number two driver behind Sergio Perez.

Walking around the paddock with his large dark mop of hair and goofy smile, Lance has grown on everyone over the last year especially with his podiums and his seemingly unflappable attitude even when it seemed he could do nothing right.

Gay Nation fans love his style and after seeing his Netflix performance this year it is assured we will see lots more of that personality at Aston Martin in 2021.

5. Charles LeClerc (Monaco) – Ferrari

In 2019 Charles started with Ferarri and came out of nowhere to grab victories and podiums and become the darling of F1 racing. Unfortunately, the engine and performance of Ferrari in late 2019 and 2020 didn’t help the stunning Monégasque to improve on the track, but he is still firmly in our hearts.

In 2021 Charles is joined by Carlos Sainz and the two already look to have a great relationship, something that was never really apparent for Charles with Seb Vettel. Let’s hope we can see more of his trademark smile to go with those beautiful eyes this year.

6. Esteban Ocon (France) – Alpine

Esteban may have been the unluckiest driver in F1 but he has always looked the part. The Frenchman started his career at Force India but when Lawrence Stroll came knocking Esteban was moved into the testing role at Mercedes and in 2020 got the gift of being the number two at Renault behind Daniel Riccardo.

Esteban isn’t you’re drop-dead gorgeous F1 type, but he is great to look at and listen to and knows how to drive. Will be interesting to see how he performs in 2021 alongside former World Champion Alonso at Alpine.

7. Fernando Alonso (Spain) – Alpine

When it was announced that Fernando was coming back to Formula 1 we knew we had to include the Spaniard in our hottest list this year. With two World Championships to his name, it was always strange to think he would leave the game when he did but after a couple of years out he’s back to kick start the Alpine team.

Very small in stature but huge in driving ability, Fernando is the hot masculine boyfriend that you would take home to meet the family and know that mum would chat to and laugh with all night. We can’t wait to see and hear Fernando during the 2021 season.

8. Carlos Sainz (Spain) – Ferrari

He hit the F1 track in 2015 but it wasn’t until his teaming with Lando Norris in 2019 did we meet the true personality and entertainer that is Carlos Sainz. The two had the most infectious relationship across all the teams and McLaren loved every minute of it.

Those Spanish looks and cheeky broken English makes Carlos certainly one of our faves. We all now wonder how the relationship will go with Monaco boy Charles LeClerc and whether they can become the power couple of 2021.

9. Yuki Tsunoda (Japan) – Alpha Tauri

We are yet to find out too much about Yuki other than he is a really fast driver in Formula 2 and will try to assist Alpha Tauri back into a winning mode. And he has the smart looks to win any argument.

10. George Russell (UK) – Williams

George had such an exciting end to 2020 with the unexpected switch to Mercedez for one race and then the chance to actually win cruelly taken away from him, but through all of it this confident, handsome Brit managed to keep his cheeky smile going and the hearts a fluttering.

No one can deny his talent or his looks, so with that perfect package and maybe a car at Williams that is a bit faster this year, George can have a great year before he takes over from Bottas in 2022.
