Away from the circuit, Sharapova turned heads as she was given VIP treatment in the paddock.
The 36-year-old wore a stylish black jacket, white shirt and green shorts as she put on a leggy display while walking along the track.
She also posed for a photo with Manchester City star Kevin De Bruyne at Sunday’s race.
The five-time Grand Slam champion even uploaded snaps of her being interviewed by broadcasting legend Martin Brundle and smiling with this year’s Wimbledon finalist Ons Jabeur.Fans were left in awe of Sharapova’s incredible look, one said on Instagram: “Beautiful woman.”
Another added: “Princess Maria.”
A third wrote: “Sharapova I love you.”
The Russian is no stranger to giving her 4.6million followers a treat, recently catching the eye as she posed in a towel.She also showed off her legs and skincare routine after a long flight last week.
Sharapova has been dubbed the “former world’s sexiest tennis star”, following her retirement from the sport in 2020.
The ex-world No1 is now an ambassador for several fashion brands like Nike and looks after her one-year-old son Theodore.
She admitted during the Covid lockdown that she’d been struggling to find motivation to eat clean and work out.
Yet Maria Sharapova proved she’d had no problem staying in shape despite her struggle with willpower as she showed off her enviably toned figure on Friday.
The Russian tennis player, 34, looked in peak physical fitness as she donned a skimpy black bikini for a boat day with fiancé Alexander Gilkes and friends while in Nerano, Italy.

Maria’s impeccably defined abs were on full display in the swimwear, which consisted of a crop top and high-waisted bottoms.
The sports star seemed to be having a great time as she frolicked in the water and sunbathed on the boat.
She later changed into a loose blue blouse and shorts as she headed back out for a stroll around the city.
Maria had spent the past few days at the Venice Film Festival where she attended the premiere for Power Of The Dog.
While Maria looked phenomenal in her skimpy swimwear, last year she admitted she was fighting the urge to indulge herself in lockdown.
The Russian star was isolating in her Santa Barbara home when the Covid pandemic took hold and revealed she had enlisted the help of Madonna’s personal trainer for virtual workouts to keep her on track.
‘I am not used to working out alone without any guidance or energy from trainers and athletes being in the same room,’ Maria told The Daily Mail’s Sebastian Shakespeare.
In a bid for help she turned to American fitness guru Tracy is known for sculpting the physiques of Madonna, Gwyneth Paltrow and Jennifer Lopez.
Maria explained: ‘In the past seven weeks I’ve formed a good little routine at home with Tracy.
‘I’d much rather eat all day, but let’s not forget our bodies need the extra discipline, considering how active that pantry is at the moment.’
While Maria may have struggled during the various lockdowns of 2020, yet the year finished on a high as she got engaged to businessman Alexander.
