LEGO is expanding its growing collection of Formula 1 display models with the launch of the [LEGO Editions McLaren Mastercard F1 Team Oscar Piastri Helmet (43017)](https://go.skimresources.com/?id=202183X1680904&xs=1&url=https://www.lego.com/en-gb/product/editions-v-43017-43017). Designed for builders aged 14 and over, this premium display piece celebrates one of Formula 1's brightest stars while commemorating a major milestone in McLaren's racing history.
Released on 1 June 2026, the 793-piece model recreates Oscar Piastri's distinctive racing helmet in impressive detail. The finished build measures over 18 cm high, 11 cm wide and 13 cm deep, making it a compact yet eye-catching display piece for motorsport enthusiasts.
What makes this helmet particularly special is its unique colour scheme. Co-designed by Oscar Piastri and his team, the model features McLaren's iconic papaya orange on one side to celebrate the team's 1,000th Grand Prix. In contrast, the opposite side showcases Piastri's signature blue colour. The contrasting design reflects both the team's heritage and the Australian driver's personal identity.
The display model includes a range of printed details that capture the look of the real-world helmet. LEGO has also included several exclusive features that will appeal to collectors, including a display stand, a plaque featuring Piastri's signature and driver number, and his distinctive OP logo positioned at the base.
An exclusive Oscar Piastri minifigure is also included in the set. Dressed in pre-race attire, the minifigure provides an additional display element and helps distinguish the model from LEGO's previous Formula 1 helmet releases.
According to LEGO's official description, the set is aimed at Formula 1 fans and vehicle enthusiasts who want to "put creativity in pole position" by building and displaying a detailed recreation of the McLaren driver's helmet. Once completed, the model is designed to serve as a striking piece of sports-themed décor.
