• Sky Sports F1 pundit NAOMI SCHIFF announced her pregnancy through a beautifully produced Instagram video with husband Alexandre Dedieu, whom she married in September. The Belgian-Rwandan broadcaster has been a regular face on UK F1 coverage since 2022, bringing her racing expertise to mainstream audiences.
• The F1 community rallied with congratulations, including 2009 world champion Jenson Button and rising star JAMIE CHADWICK. Fellow Sky colleague NATALIE PINKHAM’s comment about “that gene pool” highlighted SCHIFF’s racing pedigree – she competed in the 2019 W Series and scored a class podium at the Nurburgring 24 Hours before transitioning to broadcasting.
• SCHIFF’s journey from competitive driver to respected pundit represents the kind of career evolution we love to see – women leveraging their racing knowledge to influence the sport from different angles. Her presence on Sky Sports has added credible female perspective to F1 coverage, and this personal milestone shows how our pioneers are building full lives while staying connected to racing.
