Whispers began circulating during the three-week hiatus preceding the Azerbaijan GP. A picture with a fan unveiled Melisa Jimenez, a Spanish F1 reporter, lurking in the background. Now, a new image has taken over the internet, as the couple was spotted going for a drive.
Who is Melisa Jimenez?
Melisa Jimenez is a Spanish F1 reporter who works with DAZN F1. However, this isn’t her first gig on the small screen. As a child, Jimenez dreamed of working with Moto GP and studied hard for a degree in Communication sciences. She went on to fulfill her dream but left the Moto GP commentary team in 2015.

However, she was also a local celebrity with her participation in musical programs and music videos. In 2022, she joined DAZN F1 to become a part of the F1 paddock, where she eventually crossed paths with Alonso.
Before doing so, she was linked with FC Barcelona footballer Marc Bartra. The couple were married for 7 years between 2017 and 2022, and have three beautiful children together. In January 2022, Melissa and Marc shared the somber news of their separation, revealing that they had been living apart for several months.
Could Fernando Alonso marry Jimenez?
Beyond her journalistic prowess, Jimenez’s role as a mother to her three children- Gala, Abrila and Max- stands as a testament to her unwavering dedication to her personal and professional life. And if there’s someone who matches that level of dedication, it’s Fernando Alonso, who recently made his wishes known of starting a family.

Although Alonso too was married in the past, he has no children of his own. He had recently revealed, “I want to have a family. That is the biggest dream of my life. I have not yet succeeded with it because of my way of life. That is something in which, when I stop running, I will find happiness.”
Thus, as the 41-year-old looks at his future, he looks at the possibility of a third championship, and the surety of more victories. But as he looks down from the podium, would he see a partner to support him through it all?
