Daniel Ricciardo and Lando Norris react to LEGO Technic 42141 McLaren Formula 1 Race Car

Daniel Ricciardo and Lando Norris have gone hands-on with the new 42141 McLaren Formula 1 Race Car, reacting to the LEGO Technic set.

42141 McLaren Formula 1 Race Car was officially revealed earlier today and the McLaren racing team have presented the model to drivers Daniel Ricciardo and Lando Norris to see what they think of the big build based on the team’s 2022 Formula 1 car.

“LEGO sets these days are much more advanced than 25 years ago when I was a kid,” shared Daniel Ricciardo, moving to interact with the spoiler. “Oh, it does work, DRS Baby. This is really good.”

It's here. The first McLaren F1 @Lego_Group Technic model, inspired by our 2021 livery… And there's two BIG fans already! ?

“I’m really hoping they’re going to be sending me one!” said Lando Norris in an interview featured on the official online store. “It would be nice to have something in my new place.”
