F1 and Hasbro Launch Monopoly Formula 1 Edition

The board game maps the 2026 race calendar into a season-style play experience to broaden F1’s fan base and boost merchandise sales.

Overview

  • The game opened for global pre-order on Wednesday and is scheduled for full retail release on July 15, 2026.
  • Monopoly’s usual mechanics are reworked so players pick an F1 team, move helmet tokens around a central track instead of collecting money at GO, and compete in a new Monopoly Grand Prix mode.
  • The board replaces streets with the 24 circuits from the 2026 F1 calendar and adds team-specific cards that give constructor-linked performance bonuses.
  • Victory conditions are changed: the first player to finish the board wins the drivers’ championship while the player with the most championship points wins the constructors’ title.
  • Formula 1 and Hasbro say the edition is designed to feel authentic to fans and families, and it joins F1’s wider licensing push that uses media tie-ins and merchandise to grow audiences and revenue.
