F1 Hot Wheels Have Arrived—Unless You Support Ferrari or Aston Martin

      Hot Wheels

      The anticipated line of Formula 1 cars from Hot Wheels that was announced last year has finally arrived, and it seems the wait was worthwhile. Miniature versions of eight cars from the 2025 grid are making their way to the toy section of your local grocery store, along with premium cars and tracks.

      Hot Wheels categorizes its collection of 1/64-scale Formula 1 cars into two segments: basic and premium. The basic cars are quite straightforward; they all feature a similar diecast body with simple details like a halo, air intake, and rear wing, primarily distinguished by their liveries and wheel colors. The eight represented teams include Oracle Red Bull, Williams, Mercedes-AMG Petronas, McLaren, BWT Alpine, MoneyGram Haas, Visa Cash App RB, and Kick Sauber. If you're a Ferrari fan, however, you'll need to gather some sandpaper and red paint.

      The pricing for the basic cars aligns with Hot Wheels’ standard car line. Individual cars cost $1.25, while a pack of five is priced at $6.25. Availability differs among models. The Oracle Red Bull car should already be found in stores, while the Williams car is scheduled for release in March, and the AMG car is set to be available in June. The remaining cars can only be purchased in five-packs and will soon be arriving at stores.

      The premium cars are designed for dedicated collectors and offer greater detail compared to the basic models. They showcase a metal body more accurately shaped like the actual cars, a metal chassis, and Pirelli-branded Real Rider tires. Additionally, the small helmet in the cockpit is a nice touch that helps justify their higher price compared to the basic cars. The initial catalog includes the McLaren, Oracle Red Bull, Mercedes-AMG Petronas, BWT Alpine, MoneyGram Haas F1, Visa Cash App RB, Williams, and Kick Sauber cars. If you're a Ferrari or Aston Martin enthusiast, you’re familiar with the situation.

      The price for these premium cars is set at $8 each. They can be purchased through a pre-sale program on the Mattel Creations website or in stores starting in June 2025.

      As anticipated, the product range will expand to include tracks by the end of 2025. Hot Wheels has already announced two tracks. The Sprint Race Circuit, available for $40 and due on August 16, features a foot-operated booster resembling a gas pedal, two potential track configurations, and a Formula 1-branded tower. The Grand Prix Race Circuit, launching on August 30 for $75, is much larger than the cheaper track, allows cars to overtake one another, and includes advanced features like a counter that tracks up to 25 laps.

      The collaboration between Hot Wheels and Formula 1 is just beginning, so we can expect more cars and tracks in the future.
