LEGO Technic's Formula 1 lineup is adding Aston Martin to its growing roster of licensed race cars. Confirmed via LEGO's official product listing and reported by f1ingenerale and AutoNext, 42240 Aston Martin Aramco AMR25 F1 Car released July 1, 2026 at $229.99.

This is a confirmed release with locked pricing and mechanical specs, so here's what's included.

A New Manufacturer Joins the Technic F1 Lineup

LEGO Technic's Formula 1 series has previously covered Ferrari, McLaren, and Red Bull, so Aston Martin's addition genuinely expands the roster rather than replacing an existing model, giving collectors a new manufacturer to add alongside cars they may already own.

Why the Functional Mechanics Matter

Beyond styling, the set's working differential, two-speed gearbox, and functional steering are the kind of engineering details that distinguish LEGO Technic's F1 line from static display models, giving builders genuine mechanical interaction after assembly.

Getting Ready to Display a 61cm Model

At 61 cm long, this is a substantial finished model that needs real shelf space once built.

For protecting the finished build from dust, EVORETRO's acrylic modular case offers sizes up to 12 x 12 x 12 inches, though the model's 61cm length will exceed most standard case options, so it's worth measuring before ordering.

For safely storing or shipping the box and sticker sheets, EVORETRO's poly bubble mailers add an extra layer of protection.

Common Mistakes Collectors Make

  • Assuming a standard display case will accommodate the 61cm finished length
  • Applying livery stickers before confirming panel alignment, given how visible they are on the finished model
  • Confusing this with earlier Ferrari, McLaren, or Red Bull Technic F1 releases
  • Not testing the functional steering and gearbox before full assembly is complete
