      Iconic nineties F1 star looks unrecognisable in viral TikTok with his daughter as she tries on his old racing gear

      by

      AN iconic nineties Formula One driver has stunned fans after appearing in a viral TikTok alongside his daughter.The German won three F1 races after coming through the motorsport ranks alongside Michael Schumacher. Lea Frentzen went viral in a clip trying on her fathers 1999 F1 race suitCredit: tiktok @leafrentzenHeinz-Harald Frentzen won three F1 races in the 1990sCredit: EPAThe German now has a defined beard and appears on his daughters social media pageCredit: tiktok @leafrentzenHeinz-Harald Frentzen, now 57, drove for Sauber, Williams, Jordan and Arrows during his F1 career, and managed second and third place finishes in the 1997 and 1999 seasons respectively.But more than 20 years on from his final F1 race, he appears to have found a new lease of life on social media.And he has teamed up with his daughter, Lea to do so.Lea, 24, went viral after posting a TikTok of herself trying on her dad’s old Jordan racing suit from the 1999 season.READ MORE IN F1The yellow suit still had its numerous sponsors plastered across it, with the clip then cutting to Lea zipping up the front of the suit.It remarkably appeared to be a perfect fit, which she confirmed by captioning the post: “It fits.”Other clips on her social media page show her interviewing her father, sporting a very different look from his racing days.In his younger days Frentzen sported a clean shaven face, but has now grown out his facial hair to sport a well-defined beard.Most read in MotorsportBEST FREE BET SIGN UP OFFERS FOR UK BOOKMAKERSIt is a look that has previously caught fans off guard, with a viral pic of Frentzen with his beard doing the rounds in October last year.Frentzen had a remarkable career as an F1 driver, both on and off the track.Greatest F1 track on Earth’ created featuring iconic parts from Silverstone, Spa and SuzukaHe was part of a big push by then F1-chief Bernie Ecclestone to get more German drivers into the sport, and being promoted shortly after Schumacher while driving alongside him and Karl Wendlinger.Earning his first seat in 1994 in the Mercedes-powered Sauber, Frentzen was eyed as a star for the future by team powerhouses at the time.Offers were forthcoming from from Williams – who won the 1993 championship – and McLaren in 1994.The Williams offer came following the death of F1 legend Ayrton Senna at the Imola Grand Prix that year.However, he turned it down out of loyalty to Sauber who had given him his big break.The latter went a very different way, coming directly from ex-McLaren CEO Ron Dennis before a harmless joke saw the move collapse.Frentzen said on the Beyond the Grid F1 podcast: “You know why I never got a chance at McLaren? In 1994 in Adelaide, my manager came to me and said then I had a call, Ron Dennis wanted to see me…”So, Ron Dennis came to me and said, ‘Hey Heinz, how is your English?’, and he said, ‘there might be some improvement in your English’.”And then I said for fun, ‘and how is your German?’, because we knew that Mercedes was coming to McLaren [as an engine supplier]. ‘You have to learn German as well’, I said.”He had a stone face. I was thinking I was funny, and my manager just pushed my arm like ‘what the f*** did you say that for?’. And I saw the face of Ron Dennis, and he never ever spoke again with me. He competed with Michael Schumacher for the F1 world championshipCredit: ReutersHe was surprisingly sacked by Jordan F1 team in 2001Credit: AP:Associated Press”He was so upset that I made this joke. And that’s why I never really had a chance at McLaren, because Ron Dennis for some reason didn’t like my sense of humour.”Frentzen won his first F1 race in 1997 when he also scored podiums in seven other races to finish second in the Championship.Despite a race win season and finishing second in the championship, there was a massive drop in performance in 1998, one Frentzen cannot explain to this day.In 1999, Frentzen headed to Jordan in a straight swap with Ralf Schumacher and came within touching distance of landing the title. Two race wins had put him on the path to glory despite a run-in with Schumacher at the Canadian GP when the Ferrari accelerated out of the pits and onto the racing line, causing Frentzen to spin out when he was poised to take the lead.Retirement at the European Grand Prix due to overlooking the anti-stall system later in the season would be the final nail in the coffin for his title hopes.Things did not get better for Frentzen at Jordan. In 2001 events came to a head when team principal Eddie Jordan sacked Frentzen halfway through the season.Frentzen claimed he had discussed terms with Jordan with a promise to sign him onto the team for next season, before learning he would not be signing a new deal.Frentzen said: “I was really upset and the team was upset that I was upset. It was a very bad situation… since then it [the relationship] was never the same again.”We arrived to Malaysia but everything was different. I have no explanation (to where the performance of the car went). “It was like someone was pulling a plug. Something was not running round anymore (in the car).READ MORE SUN STORIES”Then Eddie sacked me. There was no reason, it was just out of the blue with this letter from a lawyer and informed me, so that was a big shock… Eddie was getting a little stranger each race.”Frentzen eventually left F1 in 2003, later competing in Speedcar series, Le Mans 24hr and GT racing until 2014.Fans have been caught off guard by his new lookCredit: X heinz Harald Frentzen🏁 Complete F1 2024 race calendar – details on every Grand Prix and start time this year 🏁  More

      Inside Laura Woods and Adam Collard’s whirlwind romance as sports presenter and Love Island hunk expect first baby

      by

      LAURA WOODS and Adam Collard have enjoyed a whirlwind romance – and are now expecting their first child together.The sports presenter and former Love Island hunk went public with their relationship in October.Laura Woods and Adam Collard have been going strong for nearly a yearCredit: Instagram @laurawoodsyThe former Love Island hunk wooed Laura with a string of texts before an undercover date in OctoberCredit: Instagram @laurawoodsyBut Laura’s ‘stability’ has also left Adam feeling the loveCredit: InstagramAnd they announced the wonderful news they are expecting a baby togetherThey are often seen on holiday togetherCredit: Instagram / @adamcollardThey’re not shy in sharing loved-up picsCredit: InstagramSince then they have been seen in scores of loved-up posts and been through their share of challenges.However, everything came to a head recently as they announced the wonderful news that Laura, 37, is expecting a baby.The TV presenter and award-winning journalist shared a picture of an ultrasound on Instagram, complete with her French bulldog peeking over the top.They have largely kept their relationship out of the public eye, which for notorious ladies’ man Adam, 28, seems to suggest he has turned a corner in his romantic life.READ MORE ON LAURA WOODSAdam spilled the beans on how he pulled Laura following a string of dates including at the Black Bull pub in Trimdon, Co Durham, and heading off for a weekend away in St Ives in early October before going public later that month.Speaking exclusively to The Sun in October, he revealed he had wooed her with a series of flirty social media messages before wining and dining her on an “undercover date”.He said: “The first time we met – I’ll hold my hands up – I did DM her first and got a reply but then nothing ever happened. Then she called us out for basically leaving her on read.”It’s hard to meet people, isn’t it? I’m from Newcastle and eventually we met up, and then went on a very undercover date, and obviously what comes out in the press, comes out in the press, but it’s not always the full story.Most read in FootballBEST FREE BET SIGN UP OFFERS FOR UK BOOKMAKERSLaura is a regular sight on Adam’s InstagramCredit: instagramThey make the most of their free time togetherCredit: Instagram @laurawoodsy”I’m kind of glad in a way as well, as I feel like there’s an element of having to hide too much now.”Laura’s charm seemed to rub off on Adam almost instantly, as he also suggested he felt he might have found “The One”.How Euro 2024 host Laura Woods finally tamed Love Island’s biggest bad boy Adam Collard who made Joey Essex look like a puppyBy Christmas, Laura’s parents had also given the seal of approval for their relationship as he spent the holidays with her, joking that “luckily they don’t read many papers”.Yet even before that, Laura and Adam enjoyed a romantic getaway to Amsterdam, Holland, which saw them checking out a rude restaurant, enjoying a trip down the city canal’s and relaxing in a spa.Adam claims to have had 25 girlfriends in the past, yet the “influence of stability” – as relationship expert Jo Hemmings puts it – Laura gives off has been the cornerstone of their blossoming romance.While the pair have continued to be front and centre in their respective careers, with Laura a fan favourite on ITV and TNT Sports, they have also made time for each other.When they aren’t grafting, they have often been seen enjoying one another’s company on holiday.Following their trip to Amsterdam, their next getaway in February saw them skiiing on the famous French Alps, though Laura revealed it resulted in a few “near-death experiences”.In March, during the international break, the pair changed lanes by jetting off together for some sun and sea at Tulum Beach in Mexico.Adam and Laura shared a number of snaps from the holiday, including one of Laura planting a kiss on Adam’s cheek while they were at a restaurant before also revealing what their favourite food was following a date night at Checkpoint Ciao.How Laura Woods tamed Love Island bad boy Adam CollardHE was one of Love Island’s most notorious bad boys – but one woman seems to have changed all that.Personal trainer Adam Collard, 28, has been dating Euro 2024 presenter Laura Woods, 36, since 2023.The former loverat has called her “The One,” spent Christmas with her – the first time he’s done so with a girlfriend since he was 21 – and kept their relationship relatively out of the limelight, seemingly on Laura’s wishes.It’s a far cry from the man who admits himself he’s been “ruthless” in the past, claims to have had 25 girlfriends, and spent many years partying and juggling flings with girls including Zara McDermott and Lottie Moss.Relationship expert Jo Hemmings says: “He’s now 28, he’s a professional with a job, and I think he just went off the whole idea of ever realistically meeting somebody on a TV show.“He’s now met somebody who is also a professional, and is only on TV as a byproduct of what she does in sport.“He’s got himself in a comfortable place. Financially, he’s older, he’s more mature, he’s more settled.“He once played into this roguish character that people saw him as, and became a parody of himself. But look who’s laughing now.“He’s got a fabulous girlfriend, they’re in a long term relationship, he’s well off, he’s still in the public eye, and he’s getting on with his life in the way that I think he always wanted.”Read the full article hereThe following month, Laura shared a selfie from the Tulum trip featuring Adam with the caption: “Things I love.”However, in May as the hectic English football season drew to a close, Laura suffered an horrorendous facial injury.Laura had been due to present TNT Sports’ coverage of Tyson Fury’s undisputed heavyweight title fight with Oleksandry Usyk before she was forced to pull out after revealing she had accidentally smashed a glass lampshade while on holiday with Adam.She explained how the smash had caused it to shatter before it cut her face and arm, leaving her with some nasty injuries around her eye.Unfortunately, the freak accident was used by vile trolls as a way to bash Adam by suggesting he was involved, before he snapped back: “Shut up you stupid c*** and read her Instagram post.”Laura described Adam as her “hero” that day as she hailed him for “acting so quickly and not leaving my side since and to his family for taking care of me in a time when I was petrified”.After some time being seen with a bandage around the effected area, Laura was back on TV in time for ITV’s coverage of the Euros.In early July, Adam posted a loved-up pic of the pair to celebrate Laura’s birthday, captioning the post: “Happy birthday you rockstar x.”Laura had a nasty accident in May when she shattered a lampshadeCredit: Instagram @laurawoodsyLaura described Adam as a ‘hero’ for all his helpAnd fast forward a couple of weeks and they have shared the news that they are expecting a baby.The post was simply captioned: “Hey, baby,” followed by some love heart emojis.However, some eagled-eyed fans had noticed some telltale signs that gave away the news days prior.Recent social media posts by Laura had not showed her stomach, while a post from Adam saw a note reading: “Just remember 5 years ago, you dreamed about where you are now”, which may have been another clue.Fans also noticed a brief social media hiatus from them in the days prior to the announcement.Adam has made no secret of his desire to have kids, but declared he would not be plastering them all over social media.He previously said: “I’m protective, whether it’s Laura, or my family, my friends. I want to get married. I want to have kids as well. “I’ve always thought, what type of person will I be? How can I protect my kids?”Obviously I’ve never had a kid, but I don’t think I’ll be plastering it all over [social media]. “I want them to have a fair fight and a chance not to be judged straight away.READ MORE SUN STORIES”As long as my really close circle knows exactly who I am, I don’t care.
