Lego has a rapidly-growing Formula 1 racing collection that’s great for the adult who never outgrew building model cars. All 11 teams are represented in brick form. And yes, that even includes the new Audi team, with this Revolut car. So if you’re looking for something to do while watching the races on your couch, you can build a Lego model version of your favorite speedster. Plus, you’ll even get new shelf decor out of the deal.
Take the new McLaren MCL39. It’s a 1:8 scale replica of the real deal, with push-rod and pull-rod suspension, and a removable engine cover so you can see the V6 engine in all it’s Lego model glory.
As an alternative to the car replicas, Lego just announced models of Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc‘s helmets. They don’t come out until May 1, but you can preorder them now. They even come with minifigures of each driver. (I mean, look at Leclerc’s windswept hair.)

Larger replica sets like the MCL39 or the Ferrari SF-24 from the 2024 season are meant for adult collectors and builders, so if this is your first time building a Lego set in a while, set aside a full day to put them together. They’re packed with details like an engine, a suspension system, steering controls, and moving pistons.

For a cheaper and easier option, the classic McLaren MP4/4 or cars from the Speed Champions line, like this Oracle Red Bull Racing RB20, are less involved. Don’t worry, they still have a lot of fun features, like pull-back action and realistic steering features.
To bond with the younger car fans in your life, there’s the Lego City F1 Pit Stop and Lego City F1 Truck, which are designed durably to be built and played with. We won’t tell if you get one for yourself.
