Formula One and LEGO unveil their brand-new range of F1 cars
Having recently announced their new multi-year deal, Formula 1 and the LEGO Group have unveiled their brand-new range of LEGO sets that will be launched in 2025.
The new range of LEGO sets will feature all ten Formula 1 teams and include LEGO DUPLO, LEGO CITY, LEGO Speed Champions and LEGO Collectibles sets for builders.
The Danish company has vowed that each set will be packed with intricate details to "allow fans of all ages to bring their imagination to life and become immersed in the Formula 1 world from the comfort of their home."
Fans of all ages will have the chance to build their favourite teams’ cars with the new LEGO Speed Champions and put themselves in the driving seat with the LEGO minifigure. The cars come with Pirelli slick tyre compounds as well as authentic team liveries replicating the 2024 cars you see on track.
The new LEGO DUPLO Town F1 Team Race Cars & Drivers set will "ignite youngest fans’ love of racing and includes all the essentials for a Grand Prix weekend such as ten buildable racing cars, three LEGO DUPLO brick drivers, the starting grid, and a podium."
In addition, young fans will also be able to customise their build to represent any of the Formula 1 teams’ liveries. The set will also include additional pieces to build unique modifications and assemble the ultimate Formula 1 race car to win the LEGO trophy.
Finally, the LEGO City F1 range, which is made of six different sets, will also "enable fans to build up to the ultimate Grand Prix weekend as they recreate the Formula 1 Paddock, crafting everything from the transportation trucks to the team garages and try their hand at mastering race scenarios including lights out and high-pressured pit stops."
Reflecting on the announcement, F1's Chief Commercial Officer Emily Prazer said: “Formula 1 and the LEGO Group are proud to unveil the first product range of our partnership.
"This fantastic range caters to our entire fan base, with each set celebrating a crucial element and the intricate details of the world of Formula 1, from the pitstops and team garages to the car itself. We share our fans’ excitement to see this special partnership come to life and I cannot wait for fans to start building.”
Commenting on the announcement, Julia Goldin, who serves as Chief Product & Marketing Officer of the LEGO Group, said: “This range of products combine the drama of Formula 1 with the creativity, fun and endless opportunities of the LEGO brick.
"Our new collection captures all 10 teams in the F1 grid for the first time and aims to bring families together to build and connect with their passion. With such a diverse portfolio of products, there truly is something for everyone.”
