Exciting LEGO Cars at Miami F1 Grand Prix

During the Formula 1 Miami Grand Prix, an innovative presentation took place during the driver parade. This time, instead of using classic cars or other idols, life-sized Lego models were presented. Each F1 team had a replica of their car, which was driven by both drivers of each team at the Miami International Autodrome to greet the spectators.

These vehicles were created with around 400,000 Lego pieces with the aim of resembling real cars as closely as possible, even featuring the appropriate decorations and sponsors. During the 5.4-kilometer circuit, the cars managed to reach speeds of up to 20 kilometers per hour, using electric power units and authentic Pirelli tires.

The drivers expressed their amazement and happiness at being able to drive these Lego cars during the driver parade. Some even attempted overtaking during the course. Lewis Hamilton commented, "It has been the most fun driver parade we have ever had, a messy drive, it has been so much fun," while Max Verstappen remarked, "I think they will have to sweep the track, there are some Lego pieces left!"

The association between Lego and Formula 1 was formalized last September, allowing fans to purchase some of the Lego F1 Speed Champions sets to build their own scale model car. Each car presented during the Miami Grand Prix was created by a team of 26 designer engineers at the Lando factory in the Czech Republic.
