      Who is Oscar Piastri’s girlfriend Lily Zneimer?
      There isn’t much in the way of verifiable information about Lily available, as she prefers to keep her private life out of the public domain.
      Different outlets put her age at either 21 or 22, but there is no date of birth reported.
      An F1 photographer stated that she is — or was — an engineering student.
      Kym Illman said: “Oscar has been going out with Lily Zneimer for some years now.

      “Oscar introduced me to the British student in the paddock at the 2022 Australian GP when he was the Alpine reserve driver.”
      “She’s British, polite, quiet, classy and by the time you watch this, has probably graduated with a degree in engineering.”
      Zneimer and Piastri made their first public appearance together at the 2022 Autosprt Awards, where the Oscar won the Autosport Rookie of the Year Award for the second year running.
      He posted a photograph of himself and Lily at the ceremony on Instagram and thanked those who voted for him, but didn’t acknowledge her or tag her in the post.

      She also made an appearance at Oscar’s first F1 drive — when he was the back-up driver for Alpine last year — and after the race was the first to hug Piastri alongside his mentor and manager Mark Webber.
      After the race he said: “Having my girlfriend Lily here for the first time and attending my maiden Grand Prix in Melbourne with my pals makes me very pleased.”
      What does Lily Zneimer do for a living?
      Although Lily has studied engineering, it seems she wants to get into the same business as her boyfriend in some capacity.
      Kym Illman said: “She wants a job in F1 and with her contacts, I’d say she has a strong chance of that.
      He added: “They are a delightful couple.”
      Is Lily Zneimer on social media?
      Yes, Lily is on social media — but if you want to see her content, you may be in for a disappointment.
      Although Lily is active on Instagram, her account is private.
      It only has 48 posts to date.
      How long have Oscar Piastri and Lily Zeimer been dating?
      The Australian speedster likes to keep much of his private life out of the spotlight, but numerous pictures of him with Zneimer have appeared online.
      The first photo of the couple was taken on a rainy day, with Piastri holding an umbrella.
      But the racer was only holding the umbrella over his own head, making observers chuckle and creating an internet meme.
      One person commented: “Bruh really didn’t share that umbrella and meant it.”
      The Formula One ace mentioned the duration of his relationship with Lily in an interview.

      Speaking to 9News while attending Wimbledon in July, he said: “We have been together for – I better get this right – about four and a half years now.”
      He added: “We keep it private.” More

      For the 2010 season, Lando entered the two main national championships in cadet class racing against drivers up to three years older than him, where he finished third overall in the Super One Series, as well as winning the coveted ‘O’ Plate during the season.

      Who is Charles Leclerc?
      Charles Marc Hervé Perceval Leclerc was born on October 16, 1997 in Monte Carlo, Monaco.
      His nickname in Italy is ‘il Predestinato’, which translates to ‘The Predestined’, and was given to him by F1 commentator Carlo Vanzini.
      He competed from an early age in karting, becoming French Champion in 2009, winning the Monaco Kart Cup in 2010, the CIK-FIA Academy Trophy and the Junior World Cup in 2011.

      Charles entered Formula one in 2018 with Alfa Romeo Sauber F1, before moving to Ferrari in 2019, where his teammate was four-time World Champion Sebastian Vettel.
      Following seven pole positions, 10 podiums and two victories, Leclerc finished fourth in the 2019 World Championship and extended his contract with Ferrari until 2024.
      Most read in Motorsport
      The 2020 season was below the Monegasque driver’s expectation as finished on the podium on just twice, finishing 8th in the drivers’ classification.
      In 2021, Charles secured two more pole positions and a podium.
      In 2022 he had an excellent season, finishing as runner-up behind Max Verstappen in the drivers’ standings.
      Aside from racing, Leclerc has recently hit the headlines after embarking on a career in the music business.
      He released his debut single titled AUS23 (1:1) in April.
      The four-minute classical song features Leclerc, 25, playing the piano.
      And the Monegasque driver has enjoyed a fast start after venturing into the world of music.
      According to ESPN, Leclerc spent time inside the Top 10 of the Worldwide iTunes song chart following the release of his song.
      The title of the track, AUS23 (1:1) is a tribute to the Australian Grand Prix, where the song was born.
      Leclerc did not start playing the piano until the Covid-19 pandemic, but has “fallen in love with the instrument” after spending time playing it.
      The Ferrari star said on his Spotify page: “I’m excited to share with you a piano song that I’ve been working on, born out of my passion for music and created as a way to disconnect from racing and relax in between races.
      “I’ve created this song around the Australian Formula 1 Grand Prix which is why I called it AUS23 (1:1). This is the way we call the Australian Grand Prix in my Formula One team and thought it would be a nice connection to the racing world.
      “After posting a story on Instagram of me playing that piano piece I had composed, I had a lot of positive feedback from the fans that inspired me to record it, making it easier for fans to enjoy my music.
      “My love for music has always been there, but it wasn’t until the pandemic that I started playing the piano.
      “With more time at home, I decided to buy a piano and learn to play. Since then, I’ve fallen in love with the instrument and find myself playing it whenever I’m at home.”
      Charles has also hilariously put himself forward to represent Monaco at next year’s Eurovison.
      The country withdrew from the 2007 edition due to poor results and three failures to qualify.
      But on hearing the news Monaco could be back for the 2024 Eurovision Song Contest due to the launch of TV Monaco and its membership with the European Broadcasting Union, Leclerc took to social media to offer his services.
      On X, formerly Twitter, he wrote: “I’m ready 🎤.”

      Who is Rebecca Welch?
      Welch took up football refereeing while she was still working in the health service. 
      The former NHS admin officer started her life as a ref in university football clashes and Sunday League games. 
      And while the college football encounters involving teams of female students were a “doddle”, her experience of refereeing men’s Sunday division fixtures was less straightforward.
      Welch told the FA’s web site: “The first couple (of matches) I did were women’s university games and the players weren’t really that bothered about so it was a doddle. 
      READ MORE ON FOOTBALL
      “Then the third game I did was Sunderland Sunday league football and it was a completely different kettle of fish. 
      “That took some getting used to but I am so grateful for the grassroots football experience because I never would have got to where I am now without it.
      “Sometimes I used to go home and chuck my bag down and I’d tell myself I’m never doing it again but you soon realise that not every day is going to be a good day in the office – it’s just like anything else. 
      “I had to analyse my performances and work out what I could do to improve and that’s something I really enjoy. 
      Most read in Football
      “I’ve been doing this for more than ten years now and I guarantee that the good days will far outweigh the bad ones in the long run.”
      Welch eventually worked her way into the higher echelons of match officiating, becoming part of an elite group on Fifa’s international list. 
      The Sunderland-based administrator also made her mark on the women’s game covering domestic and international encounters. 
      In addition to refereeing the Women’s FA Cup final twice, in 2017 and 2020, Welch has officiated in the men’s National League for three seasons and taken charge of WSL, Women’s Champions League and international clashes. 
      She was selected to oversee Harrogate’s clash with Port Vale in April 2021 following an ongoing review of her performances this season and official approval from referee chiefs Mike Riley and Mike Jones.
      The Washington-based ref is reported to be among the individuals included within the Professional Game Match Officials top group of referees. 
      Welch added: “I’ve always said, through all my promotions, I want to be appointed because I am in the top 10 match officials on that list. 
      “I never want to be appointed based on anything else. I’ve got faith in the system, and I’ve been rewarded.”
      Rebecca broke ground again in January 2022 when she became the first woman to to take charge of FA Cup match — the Birmingham vs Plymouth third-round tie.
      And on November 4, 2023 the trailblazer is set to become the first woman to be a fourth official of a Premier League game when Fulham take on Manchester United.
      Where is Rebecca Welch from?
      Rebecca is originally from the town of Washington, but now lives in Sunderland.
      Both are situated in the ceremonial county of Tyne and Wear.
      It borders Northumberland to the north and County Durham to the south.
      When did Rebecca Welch become a referee?
      Rebecca first picked up a referee’s whistle 13 years ago at the age of 27 after being dared to do so by a friend.
      She earned her qualifications as an official through Durham County FA.
      Welch has gone on to break ground as the first woman to officiate Football League, FA Cup and Premier League fixtures.
      Does Rebecca Welch play football?
      Yes, Rebecca does play football.
      She has played the sport since childhood.
      Welch told the FA’s website: “I played football and didn’t even think about refereeing until one of my really good friends, who is a referee, refereed us.”
      Read More on The Sun
      “I spent the whole game telling her how to do her job! Her response was, ‘If you think it’s that easy, give it a go’.
      “That’s how it happened and 10 years later here I am.” More
