New Ferrari F1 helmet Lego sets revealed at Albert Park

Scuderia Ferrari drivers Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton unveiled new, official Lego helmet sets based on their 2025 designs in the Melbourne paddock. The collectible sets, available for pre-order ahead of a May 1 release, were launched alongside one-of-a-kind, life-sized Lego replicas that the drivers carried through Albert Park.

Why it matters:

This launch represents a significant expansion of Lego's footprint in Formula 1, leveraging its partnership with the sport to create detailed collector items for fans. It merges the worlds of high-speed racing and creative construction, offering a new way for supporters to engage with their favorite drivers and team, especially following Hamilton's high-profile move to the Italian squad.

The details:

• The two new sets are the Lego Editions Scuderia Ferrari HP Charles Leclerc Helmet (886 pieces) and the Lego Editions Scuderia Ferrari HP Lewis Hamilton Helmet (884 pieces).
• Each set includes a display stand, a signature plaque, and a first-of-its-kind minifigure of the respective driver in Ferrari race gear.
• The life-sized versions created for the launch are intricate builds, with Leclerc's helmet using nearly 3,516 pieces and Hamilton's featuring close to 3,744 pieces.
• These large-scale models stand over 26cm tall, weigh just under 3kg, and took Lego Certified Professional Ryan ‘The Brickman’ McNaught's team approximately 60 hours each to design and build.
• Lego designers highlighted the challenge of capturing the unique curves and intricate details of the real helmet designs in brick form.

What's next:

The standard, display-sized Lego helmet sets will be available for purchase starting May 1, 2026. This product launch signals Lego's continued investment in its F1 portfolio, suggesting more collaborative and detailed builds centered on teams, drivers, and iconic circuits could be on the horizon for collectors and fans.
