- Lego and F1 are teaming up again, this time at the Silverstone GP
- This year the drivers will ride 22 Lego go-go-karts around the track
- The parade will take place on Sunday right before the official race
Lego and Formula 1 have teamed up again for a big-build project — and I think I might be more excited for this year's parade than the actual Silverstone Grand Prix.
If you somehow missed it, last year at the 2025 Miami GP, Lego unveiled a roughly life-size car for each team — perfectly mimicking their actual cars, except each had seating space for two drivers instead of one. They then all took a lap of the circuit, with the cars powered by a small electric motor.
This year the cars are a little smaller, but the so-called minicars are each still assembled from more than 28,000 bricks. Think of them as go-karts because that's essentially what they are — they even have proper go-kart wheels.
The big changes this year aside from the smaller size: every driver has their own car, meaning there are 22 taking to the grid, and they have a higher top speed of 25km/h — and this year Lego has accepted that the drivers are going to let their competitive side take over.
