Formula 1 winners at Silverstone presented with trophies made out of LEGO
The LEGO Group presented the top three drivers and the winning constructor of the FORMULA 1 BRITISH GRAND PRIX 2025 at Silverstone with the first-ever Formula 1 trophies made entirely of LEGO elements. Created to celebrate F1's 75th anniversary at the site of the sport's very first Formula 1 World Championship in 1950 at Silverstone, the builds were inspired by the design of the current RAC (Royal Automobile Club) golden British Grand Prix trophy that is presented to the winner of the iconic Grand Prix. The creation of the trophies is part of the multi-year partnership between the LEGO Group and Formula 1. The winner received a gold-adorned LEGO Trophy, comprised of 2,717 LEGO elements, weighing over 2kg. The 2 nd and 3 rd place podium sitters received white LEGO trophies with red and blue detailing respectively, while the constructor's winner received a dark blue and gold coloured brick-built trophy. Julia Goldin, Chief Product & Marketing Officer at the LEGO Group, said: 'At this year's British Grand Prix, we wanted to do something truly unique to celebrate a major anniversary, as well as surprise and delight builders around the world. The legacy of Silverstone is incredible, and we hope fans are inspired by these unique trophy builds that demonstrate how starting with just one LEGO elements, there are limitless possibilities to what you can create.' Emily Prazer, Chief Commercial Officer of Formula 1, said: 'Our partnership with the LEGO Group has already turned heads with the big build LEGO cars in Miami, and our next collaboration will see us mark Formula 1's 75th anniversary at the venue of the first race in 1950 with these exquisitely built trophies. It's been fantastic to work with the LEGO Group on developing really creative and engaging moments to drive interest and curiosity in both our existing and new fans and to inject some additional fun into such a celebratory moment as the trophy presentation.' Stuart Pringle, Chief Executive Officer, Silverstone said "What a moment to celebrate. Since hosting the first round of the Formula 1 World Championship at Silverstone 75 years ago we have had some iconic podium celebrations, and I could not think of a better way to make 2025 unique. I am sure the three drivers on the Silverstone podium today will be proudly showing off their fantastic LEGO trophies for many years to come."
