Simone Ashley Shines at Monaco GP While Finn Wolfhard & Gaten Matarazzo Join the Star-Studded Pit Lane
Oh great, another excuse for celebs to pretend they’re professional drivers—this time at the Monaco Grand Prix on May 24, where Simone Ashley apparently swapped her Bridgerton corset for a racing chic ensemble that could stop traffic (literally). According to People Magazine’s Star Tracks, the Enola Holmes star arrived in a curve-hugging white mini-dress topped with a Dior saddle bag, proving that even 150 mph won’t keep a true style icon from a killer photo op.
Can’t ignore Finn Wolfhard and Gaten Matarazzo joining the fun pit-side, either. These Stranger Things pals showed up in coordinated relaxed luxury—think Prada loafers for Finn and Gaten’s trademark cap—while sniffing out the best vantage point for stunt-car selfies (DotDash Meredith feed). Their bromance-in-public vibes had onlookers wondering if they were scouting for a new action-comedy squad.
Meanwhile, Patrick Dempsey, the actor-turned-racer, actually earned his keep by dropping several hot laps in a classic Porsche 911 (public track records via Monaco GP official timings). He even gave a quick thumbs-up to photographers, reminding us all he’s still the McDreamy who can handle more than just scripted heartthrobs.
Surprise cameo alert: F1 champion Charles Leclerc offered a masterclass on precision driving as his Ferrari roared past the grandstands. Sources close to the team (per The Monaco Week) say Leclerc was impressed by Simone’s “enthusiastic cheering,” though we’re still holding out for photographic evidence of her air-horn skills.
Over in the VIP paddock, rumor has it Jake Gyllenhaal quietly slipped through with minimal fanfare—proof that true A-listers don’t need paparazzi flocks to make an entrance (The Daily Mail corroborates). He reportedly whispered plot ideas for his next film to a racing engineer, blending Hollywood intrigue with high-octane horsepower.
So there you have it—celebs, cars, and the occasional genuine racing talent all converged under the Monaco sun. Nothing shocking here, folks. Let’s all act surprised when next year’s Grand Prix turns into another glitzy playground.
