Jean Todt and Michelle Yeoh finally get it done!

Former FIA president Jean Todt, 77, and Oscar-winning actress Michelle Yeoh, 60, finally put the pedal to the metal on their 19-year engagement, the pair exchanging vows in a private ceremony held in Geneva this week.

The glitzy pair, who have been in each other's lives for nearly two decades, decided to make it official in the presence of a distinguished guest list that included, among others, F1 boss Stefano Domenicali, former Ferrari chairman Luca di Montezemolo and former F1 drivers Felipe Massa and Gerhard Berger.

So it's cheers to the happy couple, proving that some things are worth the wait, and that love truly knows no finish line!

Phillip van Osten

Motor racing was a backdrop from the outset in Phillip van Osten's life. Born in Southern California, Phillip grew up with the sights and sounds of fast cars thanks to his father, Dick van Osten, an editor and writer for Auto Speed and Sport and Motor Trend. Phillip's passion for racing grew even more when his family moved to Europe and he became acquainted with the extraordinary world of Grand Prix racing. He was an early contributor to the monthly French F1i Magazine, often providing a historic or business perspective on Formula 1's affairs. In 2012, he co-authored along with fellow journalist Pierre Van Vliet the English-language adaptation of a limited edition book devoted to the great Belgian driver Jacky Ickx. He also authored "The American Legacy in Formula 1", a book which recounts the trials and tribulations of American drivers in Grand Prix racing. Phillip is also a commentator for Belgian broadcaster Be.TV for the US Indycar series.
