LEGO and Formula 1 have unveiled 22 fully drivable LEGO minicars that will carry each current F1 driver around Silverstone as part of the 2026 Formula 1 Pirelli British Grand Prix Drivers Parade. Every single-seater is built from over 28,000 LEGO bricks and is capable of reaching speeds of up to 25 km/h, marking a significant scale-up from the ten-car build that debuted the format at last year's Miami Grand Prix.The construction numbers do most of the storytelling. Each minicar clocks in at roughly 280kg, with 65kg of that mass coming from LEGO bricks alone, and the remaining structure built to make the vehicles genuinely drivable rather than static showpieces. Standard go-kart wheels sit underneath each build, giving the cars a real chassis to work from while the brick-built shells handle the visual identity. That construction approach is what allows drivers to actually pilot the minicars around the circuit at speed, turning a photo opportunity into a functional lap.The design work extends into details fans of both franchises are likely to catch. Each of the 22 minicars is styled after its team's 2026 livery, with team emblems, colorways and driver numbers integrated into the brick construction so every car reads as an authentic single-seater rather than a generic LEGO shell. That livery-level accuracy required the design and engineering teams to solve for both structural stability and surface fidelity across 22 distinct paint schemes, a workload reflected in the numbers behind the build.Production ran out of the LEGO Group's Kladno factory in the Czech Republic, where a specialist team of 20 designers, engineers and builders logged 6,400 combined hours across the fleet. Averaged out, that is roughly 290 hours of dedicated build time per car, before accounting for the design and prototyping work needed to translate current F1 team liveries into brick form.Julia Goldin, Chief Product and Marketing Officer of the LEGO Group, said the expansion came directly from audience response to last year's Miami parade, "At the LEGO Group, we are constantly striving to push the boundaries of what is possible. This latest challenge is a true testament to that, marking an extraordinary collaboration between the LEGO Group, Formula 1 and its 10 teams. We know that drivable big builds have an unparalleled ability to evoke excitement amongst fans, and are delighted to see the reaction unveiling 10 at the same time has brought. We hope these unique creations reinforce that with imagination and a LEGO brick in-hand; creativity has limitless possibilities.”Emily Prazer, Chief Commercial Officer at Formula 1, added, “As a sport synonymous with innovation and pushing boundaries, it was amazing to see another first for our sport as the big builds made their way around the track in the hands of the best drivers in the world. Our partnership with the LEGO Group enables us to inject a lot of fun into the Grand Prix experience and engage new audiences, and we can’t wait to see what else we can dream up together.”The LEGO Drivers Parade takes place at Silverstone on July 5 as part of the 2026 Formula 1 Pirelli British Grand Prix, with fans able to watch the parade live on Formula 1's official YouTube channel.
