The Power of Lego - Full Size F1 Car Built Out of Lego

People use Lego to create all sorts of amazing things. From giant replicas to functional machines, the possibilities with Lego are endless. In our Power of Lego series, we hope to inspire you by sharing some truly extraordinary Lego builds and projects with you.

The first build we want to share is a full size replica of a McLaren P1. This impressive build is made up of about 340,000 pieces and weighs over 2600 lbs. It came out of an association between Lego and McLaren. Together, they formed a team of 23 members and worked over 8,300 hours to create this vehicle. Using an array of Lego Technic pieces, they were able to replicate the curves and suspension of the actual vehicle. You can see the pieces they used for the exterior below

They replicated the V8 engine of the original McLaren P1 by using a system of 8 motor packs each containing 96 Lego Technic Motors. It also uses an electric motor made from Lego Technic batteries and an electric car battery.

Once they had finished building the model, they had Lando Norris actually complete a lap around the racetrack! Check out the video below to see it!

We hope you enjoyed this story. Check back soon for another Power of Lego story.

If you have a child that is interested in Lego, TechKnowHow offers a variety of Lego camps for children in the summer and winter. Our camps offer an excellent introduction to Lego and will inspire your children to continue building at home. Registration for winter camps begins in October!
