Bad play features
There are 4 peaces on the bottom that makes it impossible for the back wheels to spin with out you tilting it. Looks good but not good to play with.

From Track to Bricks - The McLaren MCL38
LEGO Speed Champions #77251 – McLaren F1® Team MCL38 Race Car If you’re an F1 fan and a LEGO lover, this one hits the sweet spot. The LEGO Speed Champions 77251 McLaren F1 Team MCL38 Race Car captures the bold papaya-orange look of the real 2024 McLaren with impressive detail for such a compact build. At 269 pieces, it’s a quick but satisfying build that still packs in authentic F1 elements like the halo cockpit, rear wing, sponsor decals, and those iconic Pirelli tyres.  The shaping is surprisingly sleek for Speed Champions scale — once it’s finished, it genuinely looks like a tiny F1 machine ready for the grid. The included McLaren driver minifigure is the perfect finishing touch, making it just as fun for display as it is for play.  For me, this is one of those builds that feels simple but looks seriously impressive on the shelf. A must-have if you’re collecting the full F1 grid.

Very clever design
I haven't built much Lego since being an expert builder as a child. However, I'm very impressed with this McLaren F1 car as it looks remarkably like the original, whilst using quite a few normal pieces, just in clever ways. I didn't have any problems with parts falling off or the floor dragging along, so I'm not sure what has happened with others. The only other recent kit I built was one of the tiny F1 cars and whilst that was missing a piece, the replacement part was sent very quickly, so I wasn't concerned if the same happened here. I've actually ended up with 17 spare small parts that may well be useful in the future, thank you Lego

My grandson wanted this for Valentine's Day
My 12 year old grandson loves to build the formula 1 cars. He has done many and some above his age level. He meticulously reads each instruction and builds his cars. He was so excited to pick his Valentine's Day gift and immediately asked for a new F1 Car. Love buying these for him. He now has his younger brother (5yrs) excited about building Legos. Perfect gift for your kids who have patience and love to build things.

The 2 upside down 3x3s on the bottom are terrible
The 2 upside down 3 X 3s can't stay on to save their life, whenever u try to put them back on everything else falls off, and blue tack doesn't even work to keep them on because other stuff is still super loose

Poor Build
This is the third model I have made from the F1 series. By far the worse one I have made. Hard to build without parts falling off. I know these are meant more as models than toys, but there is no way you could ever play with this one. I didn't even finish building it.

My son who is 9 took about 1.5 hrs to build this on Christmas day. ( he was watching tv) I had to help him finish it then he played with it....then it broke, I had to break it apart to build it again oh my gosh how hard was this ( I've just built the lego avengers tower) towards the end when I put a few pieces on half of it broke. Not good
