Formula 1 and Lego have joined forces to bring the excitement of motorsport to fans of all ages. Whether you're a lifelong F1 enthusiast or a casual Lego collector, the new F1-inspired sets offer something for everyone. From detailed Technic models for adults to Minifig-scale Speed Champions cars, these sets capture the thrill of the racing world in classic Lego style.
Lego has launched a full collection of Speed Champions sets, representing all 10 Formula 1 teams. This means fans can now build models of the Red Bull RB20, Ferrari SF-24, Mercedes-AMG W15, Aston Martin AMR24, and even cars from teams like Haas and Alpine. These sets are designed for play and display, featuring fun and accurate details, from sponsor logos to tiny driver Minifigs.
This release is a dream for fans who want to recreate their favorite F1 moments, whether it’s reliving past races or imagining the battles of the current season.
For adult collectors and engineering enthusiasts, Lego has introduced Technic versions of the Ferrari SF-24 and Red Bull RB20. These highly detailed 1:8 scale models feature functional steering and suspension, a working Drag Reduction System (DRS), and even a two-speed gearbox.
Unlike the Minifig-scale Speed Champions sets, these Technic models focus on mechanical accuracy, allowing builders to appreciate the complexity of an actual F1 car. They are not just static display pieces they include interactive elements that simulate the real-life performance of these race cars.
Lego has also honored F1 legends with its Icons display series, featuring Ayrton Senna’s McLaren MP4/4 and Nigel Mansell’s Williams FW14B. These sets capture the nostalgia of past F1 eras, complete with detailed designs that highlight the iconic liveries and aerodynamic features of these legendary machines.
For fans of F1 history, these sets are a must-have, offering a chance to celebrate the sport’s greatest drivers and cars.
Beyond the physical sets, Lego will have a presence at 13 Formula 1 races this season, allowing young fans to engage with the sport through creative building experiences at the track. There’s also an online portal where kids and new fans can learn about F1 teams and race strategy through a Lego-inspired digital world.
This collaboration benefits both brands Lego gains new motorsport-loving customers, and F1 expands its fanbase by introducing the sport to a younger audience in a fun and interactive way.
With the Speed Champions collection, the Technic models, and the Icons display sets, Lego has created a comprehensive F1 lineup that caters to both casual fans and serious collectors. Whether you want to play out this season’s battles between Red Bull, Ferrari, and McLaren at the Minifig level or build a mechanical masterpiece with the Technic range, these sets bring the excitement of Formula 1 into your home.
