Jenson has been wining and dining Jessica, 24, all over London and were spotted at the capital's exclusive Nobu restaurant this week.
A friend says: 'It is early days but she and Jenson really seem to have hit it off.
'They’re having great fun at the moment and getting to know each other - but they both seem very keen. There is definitely an attraction.'
Jessica appears to be equally smitten with the driver, and updated her recent Facebook status saying 'Jessica is very happy, but I'm not telling why.'
The model owes her exotic looks to her Japanese mother and an Argentine father with Spanish and Italian origins.
