Pierre Gasly’s girlfriend Francisca Cerqueira Gomes stuns in cutout rope dress as she arrives in Cannes with F1 star

PIERRE GASLY is used to being the centre of attention in F1.

However, he had to play second fiddle to girlfriend Francisca Cerqueira Gomes.

The pair were in attendance at the Cannes Film Festival in France.

This year's festival has seen a host of stars glam up to attend, including the girlfriend of Gasly's former Red Bull team-mate Max Verstappen, Kelly Piquet.

On the red carpet at the 76th edition of the event, Francisca - also known as Kika - stole the show.

The model, born in 2003, donned a cutout black dress complete with rope keeping the front together.

Francisca, who has 320,000 followers on Instagram, also had her hair tied back in a ponytail.

As images of the pair went around on social media, fans reacted with fervour for her look.

One fan wrote: "What a QUEEN."

A second typed: "SHES SO GORGEOUS."

"Her dress [is] so beautiful 😩," remarked a third.

A fourth said: "Ignore him omg I want her."

Another added: "U know what, I respect Kika's game of making him match a little with her everytime because his broche goes with the glitters of her dress AND her earrings this is another 'Kika dressing Pierre masterclass…."

Kika and Gasly, 27, reportedly started dating in 2022 after they were spotted in a nightclub in Porto together.

Speculation heated up when the then AlphaTauri driver was accompanied by the model at the 2022 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix paddock last month.

Gasly has had previous history at the Cannes Film Festival.

He and compatriot and now Alpine team-mate Esteban Ocon were both accused of cropping one another out of photos taken when attending in 2018.

Ocon himself has also returned to the red carpet this year, being accompanied by his Mum.

The 26-year-old shared a picture of them together and tweeted: "Bucket list: Cannes Festival with mum ✅😊."
