Check out the local prices and availability in the LEGO Online Shop - - racingbrick.com/product/76919-2/

If you think about it, the ability for pieces to come off easily is adding realism for play!

It looks very accurate, I can't wait for other F1 cars

Finished building mine and i really gotta say lego deserves a huge round of applause for this set. Theres so many really accurate details that alot of non f1 fans would not notice. The side pods shape is spot on, even down to the intake! The front wing is a huge improvement over the w12 mercedes with it being closer to the ground but the rear wing i do find to be way too bulky. All in all i think its a 10/10 set still despite the price hike!

Man, march is going to be one heck of a month for lego with all of these new releases, I am confused on which one of these I am going to pick up. There are so many good choices! Love your reviews man, keep them rolling!

The next month is gonna be fire🔥🔥

This year is pure gold for F1 fans :)

6:41 HE SAID CLUTCH POWERS!!!!!!

I’ve been waiting for this vid

That ski detail is neat. Seems like this is a lot better than mercedes one, and it's a single pack and not double-pack with some additional price for a car that you may not want. Also more vibrant colours help a lot.

Dude, i love your content on lego technic cars and speed champion

Another one to add to my McLaren Speed Champions collection!

Hey your videos are great and I love the reviews on the models I can't wait for more

FINALLYYY A REVIEWWWW

ngl kinda crazy when this set costs as much as the merc combo set with two cars, with the merc combo being proper detailed

Speed champions design team is at a complete other level 🔥

I love this build, I really think they nailed the front wing especially, but the sidepods are also so beautifully shaped, and I love your reviews too haha thank you for these! : )

Finally, slick tires so I don't have to wear them out of my treamil.

At 03:07 - I love those new wedge shaped slopes - a mini version of the headlights wedge from a couple of years ago. I need to get a few as soon as they appear on Lego Pick-a-Brick for a project that I am working on, hopefully they won't be only available in black. It's an attractive model. I think the fragility is just a Lego replication of what you sometimes see in F1 cars anyway.

built mine today, really nice little build and great for display very detailed

More printed pieces are always welcomed, but with any race cars in general a higher number of stickers are expected. To me, the real shame is the lack of an option for Lando & Oscar. Doing so for 76909 Hamilton & Valtteri had to have increased sales for the set to some degree with builders like me who bought 2 sets to make one of each. Maybe just not enough to warrant the additional pieces and stickers. Something to remedy in the aftermarket I suppose.

What a beautiful set! I want it

It's been my favourite lego model so far, very impressed

Looks like a genuinely fun build! Can’t wait to get it for my friend.

Thanks for the review! P.S. You miss new 1x2 slope parts where you put first two stickers.

We NEED a comparison between the 42156 vs 76909 Please!

I love the stickers. It's such a therapeutic pause in the building process. Use tweezers folks! it helps out tremendously.

This month is quite literally the month for f1 fans. hehe

Looks sick

2:29 What a twist!

Got it yesterday, it really is a nice one, it looks great! Now I wish LEGO would release the rest of the grid

Had to pick this one up. Havent built lego since i was a kid (42). The quality and design is super clever. They should go ahead and do a few more deals with other teams. I’d love to have an alpha tauri

Might buy 2 of these and another of the Mercedes and then swap the wheels around on 1 so that I have one of each on slicks and wets lol

I'm not usually one to bitch about stickers, but a sticker on an already printed part? The hell LEGO?

Definitely going to get 2 of these for both Lando and Oscar. Pity that the Aston Martin will be in a 2 pack.

Not sure if it got a mention in the Merc build video a few years back, but they cleverly got around not using slick tyres by printing the Pirelli details in blue which was the colour for the wet/groved tyres, where as now they have slicks they've used yellow which is the colour for the medium compound tyre. Also the 2 cars are completely different generations of F1 cars.

Definit6ely an improvement in detail though the fragile nature of the model can be summed up as this is a display model opposed to playable toy. Lot of stickers, but they nicely complete the look and the printing on the tires look spectacular. Definitely excited for this one and the Mustang.

My last Lego set I’ll ever build. Thanks for all the great memories!

One thing I discovered with the new Pirelli printed tires is you can fit the older smaller speed champion wheel covers, so the 6 stud wide sets, their wheel covers can fit on these wheels

Having built this myself yesterday, I can now see you switched around the two rear orange rear spoiler pieces that are on the side. The angle on the sticker should go rear/upwards. You’ll understand when you check. There also seems to be a discrepancy in boxart and instructions: the rear light looks to be in different positions.

I plan to grab all 5 speed champs once available!

Amazing video from you again! Please review the polybag to👍

Oh by the way I voted for this car! Happy to see it first on the channel! Very detailed work as always my friend! Keep it up and you will have 1 mil subs in no time!

I've been watching most of your videos and while I enjoy watching you build these speed champions sets, most technic sets seem to offer much more for similar prices. I think speed champions should have an RRP of 20-22 euros and I would definitely consider buying some of them, as they look pretty nice

if I had money I'd buy so much of this stuff

This video got me screaming "i need it" like I'm Spongebob.

Very exicitig to see kawasaki and big mercedes f1 building rewiews😊

amazing

One thing they did well with the mercedes set was giving it the Cinturato tire lettering since it wasn't a slick tyre

Im very surprised that this set is the most wanted. I never realized how popular F1 was, I was even more surprised by the amount of people at my school with McLaren F1 hoodies. I personally am more excited for the BMW and E-tron sets, but this set definitely looks cool, and the building techniques are cool. 🏎️

Yoooo, Iam waiting for the BMW and the Mustang!!

I think at least they could add mini wheel arches which current F1 cars have on front tires ...

Since you point out how the dimensions of the wheels would conflict, perhaps the reason for them not making the rear wheels of the icons set a different size is that it would be out of system, idk the dimensions of the new wheels, but if they’re say 4 studs wide, in order to fit the original size they’d have to make it 5 and a half studs wide, which might violate some compatibility rule? I don’t know if they want all their wheels to be integer stud widths.

Love that orange helmet

I just want a 2023 or 2024 Lego F1 car in that scale

This is the best looking speed champions set since the audi quattro s1 (which I was lucky enough to get my hands on). I think it looks more accurate than the icons mclaren despite being at a much smaller scale. If I was a fan of f1 I would buy this instantly

cool formula 1 lego

First also love your channel

bought this set a day ago and i decided not to put on the 11 stickers of 26 10 of them being advertisements 1 being the orange triangle and i gotta say it looks a thosand times better! really like this set can't wait for the aston martin double pack!

one thing im bummed about, they didnt add the frnt wheel gaurds, but im fine with it bc even i cant think of how to add them

Man I wish they made the wheel covers over the front two wheels

The formula season seems to be really cool.

While assembling side pods and spoilers are so weak they will fall apart while fixing other parts Also while fixing halo the holder will increase the tension with pipe and fall apart overall 8/10

My applause to designer of this McLaren👏

Ive build the set last night and its amazing.... You say that the tail falls off... Mine is very secure. No isseus at all with stability... Only had a problem with one sticker... It didnt loose the paper very wel and some color got stuck on the paper screwing up the sticker...

I really love your content. I wanted to know if the new printed tires could fit on the Porsche 963 Lego made last year.

Already on shelves at a certain supermarket chain just can't get the points in the lego app yet much to my ire. They hadpretty much most of the March car related releases in various quantities. Was half tempted to grab the McLaren FormulaE one but just went with the standard F1 as I was waiting for that one mostly.

For some odd reason. The Lego builder app doesn’t include the f1 in the Speed Champions category. It doesn’t even show at all

I’ll definitely be getting this set. Only disappointed with the detail on the minifig

Will be picking these up. Love speed champions and F1! Just need a Red Bull

Them falling apart so easily is correct to the real cars. If I'm crashing them together wings and parts falling off is awesome.

Cool

Great evolution! I like it and color combination😍 But. You couldn't choose the driver number - quite sadly...

just got this today and all i can say is that it looks better in person, price is not bad for it and lastly the only thing i dont like is that piece behind the front tires it bothers me when it falls down and get turn easily.

I'll probably buy it mostly for the wheels to put on customs or something

Thanks for the review but the rear wing side stickers are wrong, The orange and blue OKX side panels are fitted incorrectly. The right part must be fitted to the left and the left part to the right.

I like the model for the scala. It would be great to see f1, wec,and Nascar more in this size. This will be a expensive month 😂

if there were no stickers and all prints it would actually be an amazing set. like this its ok

It's on sale here in Finland, loved it, but, the front wing is wobbly which is really annoying

So happy I didn't waste money on the old Mercedes F1 LEGO Speed Champion build with those silly tiny tires, LEGO sees a big opportunity here with these F1 Speed Champion sets to justify the new tires, printed parts and random wedge pieces to help the shape at this scale, I miss the old Ferrari Team LEGO sets

I personally pre ordered the McLaren mp4/4

My rear tires are touching the rear wing. Don’t really understand what I did wrong cause now the rear tires won’t rotate without inadvertently removing the rear wing

Im waiting for the 1:8...i hope the 765lt or speedtail

Nooo. I needed that new wedge brick in plain black.

I remember when Speed Champions sets were $15 :( Back then it was easy to justify getting a whole bunch of them. At $27 though... I might still buy them occasionally, but not nearly as many. Don't know how much of the price increase is inflation vs. greed, but if it's greed, it's going to get LEGO less profit from me as I just can't justify buying two cars at $27 each when I used to be able to get 4 for $60. Still this McLaren set is very neat and I may pick it up at some point, but even then I'll wait until it's on sale somewhere.

I really hope Lego continues with all the F1 teams, I would buy them all. I hated that I had to get the Merc with another car I don't care about, the F1 car by itself is perfect.

My Lego hot take: I love the stickers. Gimme more stickers

When I started collecting in 2020, the pricing made it very attractive and they didn't take up much space. It's gotten to the point now, where I grumble about the prices, but still buy them anyway. And, with 50 8-wide cars, space is now becoming an issue. I'm def stopping at 60!

Will you do a review of the upcoming polybag? And if so, could you tell us where you find them? I can’t seem to find polybags easily if not on the resale market

looks fantastic even if the wheels are even size but the loose parts and 1 or 2 stud connections kind of stink

I need a ferrari SF75 next year, if it looks just as good, I will be happy

Considering how bulky the rear wheel is, it really should be attached in a better way. Other than that I can't really criticize it. Can't wait to have this and all the upcoming Speed Champions F1 cars.

Can you use the McLaren wheels (without wheel cover) on the Mercedes F1 Car? I prefer the racier slick tyres over the full-wet which reminds me of the 2021 Belgian GP.

27 up from 20 is a bit of a bit bummer, but with the added colors and details in this one, they are gonna get my $$$ I feel that the Mustang and such needs to cap at 24/25 and makes sense the F1/race cars justify to 2/3$ increase

Been wanting to get the Merc F1 speed champions, but not really excited about the AMG One in the set. With this one pack Mclaren F1 I could get an F1 speed champion at cheaper price (than a two-car set)

Looking forward to getting this set when the price is right. It would be a shame for the Speed Champions theme to lose popularity because of a loss of value/affordability.

How did you get it early

The set looks great and was fun to build. Accurate enough but lacking the front wheel deflector aka the wheel brows. Strange they’re not included.

The set should look great and be well put together. I don’t like the idea of it falling apart so easily.

That window would make a *brilliant* radiator for a hot rod. Anyone up for a B model?
