Red Bull Racing has teamed up with the LEGO Group for an all-new collaboration. Formula 1 recently announced a multi-year partnership with the iconic brand, with the RB20 being one of many cars which you can now purchase and build. The new kit gives enthusiasts the chance to recreate their own 2024 championship-winning car. The new set can already be pre-ordered via the toy brand's website, with the LEGO version of the Red Bull car retailing at £199.
LEGO and Red Bull Racing unveil new RB20 package:
The LEGO variant of Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez's current car is about 55 centimetres long, made up of 1639 pieces and has a 'V6' engine. The car will be available from March 1 2025.
Fans have been 'crying out' for this partnership:
Red Bull's chief marketing officer, Olly Hughes, explains why the collaboration is important. "We are always looking for the perfect build here at Red Bull Racing, so it made sense to shape a new relationship with the LEGO Group. We have been listening to our fans, and they have been crying out for this partnership, so we are delighted to see the pieces finally fall into place for 2025," Hughes explained.
All 10 current Formula 1 teams will soon be represented with their own LEGO sets due to the partnership. There are also some classic options, like Nigel Mansell's 1992 championship-winning 'Red 5' Williams FW14B
