This stylish fin is ingeniously assembled using a 2x6x4 vertical stabiliser, attached with Technic pins and partially hidden inside the body. Plates and tiles are then fitted sideways beside the fin, closing any gaps. The entire structure slots together seamlessly and colourful elements, such as the red 1x1 round tile with bar shown below, are concealed when the bodywork is finished. The dark colour scheme, not traditionally associated with Mercedes AMG, originates from the 2020 and 2021 Formula 1 seasons, representing a commitment towards diversity. This design takes inspiration from the 2021 car and closely resembles its source material, particularly since the grey section behind the airbox is unique. Accurate teal and dark red highlights are included as well.

Driver position. Don't agree that it couldn't be done better at this scale. I already did a first approach of a new design and it works. The simple answer is to modify the section of the steering wheel, to make it fly over the legs of the driver. Then you can put the driver 1 stud advanced, compared to the original position. With this change you can recline the driver and his position is more realistic. LEGO Speed Champions sets deliver authentic replicas of the world's most innovative and best-known vehicles. Perfect for display, the collectible models are also great for thrilling race action against other vehicles from the Speed Champions range. Would the steering wheel fit on plate 21445? Because that would allow to slide the driver one stud forward, recline him/her and then attach the wheel above the legs with the special plate 21445 - did not try it but might be (an element) of solution.

I was wondering what you would think, Lluís, given your selection of minifigure-scale F1 cars! I agree regarding the tyres, but the minifigure is already sitting on the base of the chassis, so changing that would entail adapting the bodywork, rather than lowering the seat further. Easy to carry and store – The Mercedes-AMG F1 W12 E Performance model measures over 1.5 in. (4cm) high, 7.5 in. (19cm) long and 2.5 in. (7cm) wide I have been looking forward to another Formula 1 car since Speed Champions' traditional scale was updated two years ago. 76909 Mercedes-AMG F1 W12 E Performance & Mercedes-AMG Project One does not disappoint, as Lewis Hamilton's car includes tremendous detail and has undoubtedly benefitted from the enlarged size, relative to previous Formula 1 cars from Speed Champions.Interactive digital building guide – Zoom, rotate and view each model from all angles as you build with the LEGO® Building Instructions app, available for smartphones and tablets LEGO Speed Champions sets deliver authentic replicas of the world’s most innovative and best-known vehicles.
