F1 drivers’ parade to have driveable LEGO big build cars ahead of Miami Grand Prix 2025

The Formula One drivers’ parade will feature fully drivable and team bespoke LEGO big-build cars that will replace the usual drivers’ parade truck ahead of the Miami Grand Prix on Sunday.

Each team will have its own custom car in its colours and liveries and will drive the 5.4km track in front of all the fans ahead of the fifth round of the 2025 calendar.

The vehicles are based on the LEGO F1 Speed Champions range unveiled late last year and have been designed to celebrate F1 and the LEGO Group’s ongoing, multi-year partnership.

At a near 1:1 in scale with Formula 1 cars, each big build is made of nearly 400,000 LEGO bricks, weighing 1,000kg and capable of reaching speeds of 20 km/h, all while capturing the intricate and unique details of a Formula 1 car, including everything from sponsor logos to authentic Pirelli tyres.

Each car has been created by a team of 26 designers, engineers and LEGO builders, over 22,000 hours, in the LEGO Group’s Kladno factory, located in the Czech Republic.
