The LEGO Group and Formula 1 have unveiled 22 drivable minicars for the 2026 British Grand Prix drivers parade at Silverstone. Each of the 22 drivers receives an individual vehicle built from approximately 28,000 bricks, replacing the shared team cars used at Miami in 2025.

Evolution from Miami concept
The 2026 Silverstone edition expands on the 2025 Miami Grand Prix parade, where 10 shared two-seater LEGO cars represented the teams.[1] The new individual format responds to fan feedback and aims to increase action during the parade lap.
