LEGO Speed Champions 77258 F1 ACADEMY Race Car Building Set

Model Overview

The LEGO Speed Champions F1 ACADEMY LEGO Race Car 77258 is a brick building set for fans of motorsport, model cars and display builds. It recreates the F1 ACADEMY race car in LEGO form, giving hobbyists a compact scale model with recognisable open-wheel racing styling and a female driver minifigure for the cockpit.

Designed for builders aged 10 and over, this hobby kit combines play value with display appeal. Once assembled, the car can be shown off as a shelf model or used for racing-themed storytelling, making it a versatile addition to any collection of brick-built vehicles.

Construction Features

This 201-piece set captures the key shapes of a modern race car in a simplified LEGO format. The build includes a cockpit, rear wing, halo and tyres printed with the Pirelli name, helping the finished model look instantly recognisable to motorsport fans.

The included female F1 ACADEMY driver minifigure adds another layer of character to the build. With a helmet, wig and wrench included, the figure can be placed in the cockpit to complete the look of the car and create a more finished display piece.
