The month of August seems to have kicked off the wedding season in F1 as Ex-Head of Race Strategy for Alfa Romeo and current F1 presenter, Ruth Buscombe becomes the latest F1 personality to tie the knot. Her groom is none other than former Mercedes mechanic, Nathan Divey. Nathan, who left the Brackley squad at the end of 2022 to join Ferrari, was Lewis Hamilton’s #1 mechanic.
For those curious to know about the details of the wedding, Ruth gave it all away on her Instagram account as she shared a carousel of photos and videos from the wedding, which took place on 3rd August at the Old Marylebone Town Hall in London.

Her wedding dress came from the popular dress designer Wtoo by Watters, her make-up was done by the makeup artist, Charlotte Tilbury, and the rings were designed by the jewelry store, Cartier.
Plenty of F1 personalities sent congratulatory messages to Buscombe and Divey including the likes of Valtteri Bottas and Pierre Gasly, who liked her Instagram post to send their love. Some of the other well-wishers included Chloe Grant, Sophia Floersch, and Bernie Collins, the former strategy engineer for Aston Martin.
As it’s the kick-off of the wedding season, other figures like Naomi Schiff and F1 commentator David Croft are next in line to tie the knot. Naomi recently posted a video on her Instagram showcasing her bachelorette trip in Ibiza with her friends. Meanwhile, Croft announced his upcoming wedding months ago.
