Mickey X Formula 1 Racing to the Top! follows Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, and Goofy as they support a racing team in crisis. The story blends the teamwork and competitive intensity of Formula 1 with Disney’s established character dynamics.<\/p>\n

The project is part of Disney and Formula 1’s ongoing multi-year “Fuel the Magic” collaboration, which combines racing culture with character-driven storytelling and themed fan experiences at race events worldwide. The 2026 campaign will begin in Melbourne before expanding to additional stops, including the Chinese Grand Prix.<\/p>\n

The collaboration also coincides with new global licensed merchandise launches for the 2026 race season, including products from Disney Store, Gentle Monster, and additional trackside collections.<\/p>\n
