In addition to the well-known Speed Champions and Technic ranges, brick enthusiasts will have the chance to get creative with the LEGO DUPLO set, designed for “preschool children and building sets for adult and child builders.”
“The activities planned for 2025,” as stated in the press release, “will also focus on bringing fans closer to the world of innovation, technology, and engineering through the fun of LEGO building, with personal activities during races and products that celebrate the engineering and technical heritage of this sport.”
“LEGO bricks have sparked creativity and a passion for building in millions of children and adults around the world,” said Emily Prazer, Chief Commercial Officer of Formula 1 – “Thanks to this partnership, fans will be able to recreate and reimagine the world of Formula 1, brick by brick, delving into the complexities of the mechanics and technology behind this sport through play.”
“We look forward to bringing the drama and excitement of Formula 1 to LEGO Group’s passionate builder community and giving our fans another way to enjoy this sport with their friends and families.”
Julia Goldin, Chief Product & Marketing Officer of the LEGO Group, added: “The LEGO Group is proud to have recreated many Formula 1 cars in LEGO bricks in the past. We believe this new partnership, through LEGO play and building, will help bring the spectacle of this sport even closer to all fans. It will allow them to celebrate their passion for this sport in more engaging and exciting ways. The power of LEGO creativity and imagination will further elevate the excitement of F1. We can’t wait to reveal all that this exciting partnership has to offer to Formula 1 and LEGO fans, both old and new, at home and on the track.”
