Has Naomi Schiff retired from presenting F1?

Since announcing her pregnancy in May 2025, Schiff has continued to feature on Sky F1's coverage as one of their most popular pundits.

Alongside Natalie Pinkham, Rachel Brookes, Jamie Chadwick and Bernie Collins, Schiff is helping to bring an authoritative voice to the sport's coverage as it's female fanbase continues to grow.

The former driver also works as a co-presenter for Canal+, and is occasionally absent from Sky's coverage to carry out her duties with the French F1 broadcaster.

But Schiff is set to take the rest of the year off to prepare for the arrival of her first child, with her return likely set for the 2026 season.

When signing off on Schiff's final Sky Sports appearance at Zandvoort, fellow presenter Simon Lazenby said: "Next time we see you, you’re going to be a mother, good luck with it all."

Schiff then responded with a farewell message after her final race of the 2025 season, saying: "I’m going to be watching you guys, sending you lots of messages, and hopefully soon we’ll have another little F1 fan in the world, watching along."
