LEGO and Formula 1 send 22 drivers around the British Grand Prix in single-seaters built from 28,000 bricks After becoming one of the most talked-about moments of the 2025 Miami Grand Prix, with 10 fully drivable LEGO brick-built Formula 1 cars, the LEGO Group’s Drivers Parade is back for a 2.0 version at this weekend’s Formula 1 Pirelli British Grand Prix 2026. Silverstone is about to witness something no engineering department ever sanctioned: 22 single-seaters built not from carbon fiber, but from over 28,000 interlocking ABS bricks. This Sunday’s British Grand Prix Drivers Parade will see every grid driver piloting a bespoke LEGO minicar, liveried, numbered, and badged to match their 2026 machinery, topping out at a stately 25km/h. It’s an evolution, not a repeat. Last year’s Miami parade put ten drivers into oversized LEGO Speed Champions builds and produced, by all accounts, gloriously undignified chaos. This iteration trades scale for personalization: each car is a faithful miniature tribute to its team’s colors and identity, assembled over 6,400 hours by twenty LEGO engineers and master builders at the Kladno factory in the Czech Republic. Julia Goldin, the LEGO Group’s Chief Product & Marketing Officer, frames it as a fan-driven iteration—Miami proved there was appetite, so this is the refined follow-up. Formula 1’s Emily Prazer is similarly bullish, calling last year’s parade one of the season’s most memorable moments and pitching this as the natural escalation: motorsport precision colliding with childhood’s favorite building blocks. Whether 25km/h qualifies as “drivable” in any motorsport sense is a matter for pedants. Everyone else will simply be watching grown men in racing overalls fold themselves into plastic go-karts, and enjoying every second of it.
