Hot Wheels has officially entered the fast lane of Formula 1 with its new 2025 collection, proving that even die-cast cars can dream big. Following the success of their 2024 limited-edition release, the lineup now spans eight F1 teams, all decked out in official team liveries and Pirelli-branded tires. Yes, your favorite open-wheel racers are now ready to dominate the iconic orange track—or your bookshelf, depending on your ambitions.
For those wanting more than just cars to collect dust, Hot Wheels has unveiled two track sets designed for high-speed chaos: the Sprint Race Circuit and the Grand Prix Race Circuit. These come loaded with kid-powered boosters, manual DRS diverters, and just enough curves to remind you how terrible you are at keeping your cars on track.
The cars themselves start at £2.30, while the premium series offers collectors a chance to own miniature versions of McLaren, Red Bull Racing, and others for £10.99 each. They come in fancy packaging too, but who’s really buying these just to keep them in boxes?
So, whether you’re a seasoned collector or someone who just wants to see a Mercedes-AMG car shoot off a dining table, the new collection might be worth a look. Just don’t blame Hot Wheels when your dog becomes the unintentional safety car.
