Zhou Guanyu is the only Chinese driver in Formula 1. Zhou joined the F1 grid in 2022 for Alfa Romeo alongside Valtteri Bottas.

As such, Zhou has been adored by fans who look up to the Chinese driver for iconic styles.
Guanyu’s fashion sense did not go unnoticed even by a famous luxury brand. Dior has signed Zhou Guanyu as an ambassador for the lucrative Chinese market. Zhou announced this partnership on his social media handles, including Twitter. The Alfa Romeo driver stated his enthusiasm for getting affiliated with the French giant with the caption, “Happy to be a @Dior ?? Ambassador!”
