Overview

  • The top three finishers and the winning constructor at the 2025 British Grand Prix received LEGO-built trophies on July 6 as part of F1’s 75th anniversary celebrations at Silverstone.
  • Seven master builders in Billund devoted 210 hours to design and assemble four brick trophies, each glued together and reinforced with a LEGO Technic spine for podium durability.
  • The winner’s trophy stands 59 cm tall, weighs over 2 kg and comprises 2,717 bricks in exclusive gold and black finishes, while second and third place versions measure 43 cm with red and blue detailing.
  • The constructors’ award matches the winner’s dimensions but features dark blue and gold coloring, underscoring the ongoing multi-year partnership between Formula One and LEGO.
  • By granting permanent ownership of the LEGO models instead of the returnable RAC cup, F1 aims to fuse its heritage with immersive fan engagement to attract new, younger audiences.
