Lego has announced that the iconic 2025 Miami Grand Prix drivers’ parade is coming back, with a fresh twist at Silverstone!\u00a0\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
Back in 2025, Lego created 10 life-sized cars which the drivers turned into something of a demolition derby in Miami, but for the British Grand Prix this weekend, all 22 drivers are going to be armed with their own fully-driveable minicar, capable of speeds up to 25mph.\u00a0\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
Each car consists of over 28,000 bricks, with a total of over 6400 hours spent creating the ‘machines’, which weigh around 280kg each, with 65kg of this being Lego bricks, designed in the Lego factory in the Czech Republic.\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
“We always listen to our fans, and it was clear from the 2025 Miami Grand Prix Drivers Parade that both fans and drivers wanted more,” explained Julia Goldin,\u00a0Chief Product & Marketing Officer of the Lego Group.\u00a0\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
“We\u2019re back with a 2.0 version in a brand-new format, bringing even more fun and excitement to the parade.”\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
F1’s chief commercial officer, Emily Prazer, added: “Last year, the F1 Lego Drivers’\u00a0Parade\u00a0in Miami with the Lego big build cars\u00a0was one of the most memorable and\u00a0talked-about moments of the season, capturing the imagination of fans around the world and showing a different side of the sport.\u00a0\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
“This year,\u00a0we\u2019re\u00a0building on that moment to create an incredible spectacle for fans attending the British Grand Prix and those watching globally.\u00a0\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
“There is something truly special about bringing together the worlds of Formula 1 and LEGO\u00a0play, combining innovation, creativity, and entertainment in a way that can inspire and excite fans of all ages.”\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Lego has announced that the iconic 2025 Miami Grand Prix drivers’ parade is coming back, with a fresh…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":774650,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[572],"tags":[64,63,827,830,828,831,829,826,813,823,825,806,805,824,803,804,822,85],"class_list":["post-774649","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-motosport","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-daniel-ricciardo","tag-f1-calendar","tag-f1-live","tag-f1-results","tag-f1-standings","tag-ferrari","tag-formula-1","tag-lewis-hamilton","tag-max-verstappen","tag-motor","tag-motor-sports","tag-motorsport","tag-motosport","tag-motosports","tag-racing","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/774649","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=774649"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/774649\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/774650"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=774649"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=774649"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=774649"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
