Oracle Red Bull Racing RB20 F1 Race Car

The last Red Bull Adrian Newey ever designed — and Max Verstappen's fourth title car — at 8-stud scale.

Set #77243 2025 251 pieces 8-stud Current

LEGO® Speed Champions set 77243 is a 251-piece replica of the 2024 Oracle Red Bull Racing RB20, released on 1 March 2025 at US$26.99 / £22.99 / €26.99 / A$44.99. Two facts make it editorially unusual. First, it's an 18+ build — not because the construction is hard, but because LEGO® classifies any Red Bull-branded set in its adult range to keep clear of the energy-drink marketing boundary. Second, the real car has a clean historical placeholder: it's the last Red Bull design Adrian Newey put his name to before announcing his departure for Aston Martin in May 2024, and it carried Max Verstappen to a fourth consecutive drivers' championship that the team was, by season's end, no longer winning.

The real car: a one-season Formula 1 chassis whose story arc bends sharply between February's launch optimism and December's leadership exodus.

THE F1 CAR

Oracle Red Bull Racing RB20

Verstappen's fourth-title chassis — and Adrian Newey's last Red Bull

Red Bull Racing unveiled the RB20 on 15 February 2024 at the team's Milton Keynes factory, and ran it on track at the Bahrain pre-season test eight days later. It was the direct successor to the RB19 — the car that won 21 of 22 races in 2023 — and carried over much of that aerodynamic philosophy under Adrian Newey's signature, with Pierre Waché continuing as the team's Technical Director. The power unit was the Honda RBPTH002, a 1.6-litre V6 turbo hybrid built by Honda Racing Corporation and producing approximately 1,021 horsepower combined.

The 2024 season started the way Red Bull's 2023 season had ended — Verstappen won seven of the first ten Grands Prix, including back-to-back victories at Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Japan, China, Imola, Canada and Spain. After Spain, the car's clear performance advantage faded. McLaren and Ferrari closed in. Verstappen would win only twice more all year — São Paulo (a wet-weather drive from 17th on the grid that's already entered Verstappen lore) and Qatar — but it was enough. He sealed his fourth consecutive drivers' championship at Las Vegas with two rounds remaining, finishing the year on 437 points.

Sergio Pérez had a different season. The Mexican driver scored 152 points to Verstappen's 437, and Red Bull lost the constructors' championship to McLaren by 14 points — their first constructors' title surrender since 2021. In December 2024, Red Bull announced that Pérez would leave the team "with immediate effect," four years after he joined. He was replaced for 2025 by Liam Lawson, who had been the team's reserve driver and had completed six races for sister team RB the previous season.

Around the on-track decline, the team itself was changing shape. In February 2024, an internal Red Bull GmbH investigation cleared team principal Christian Horner of allegations brought by a female employee. In May, Adrian Newey announced he would leave Red Bull in early 2025 — ending a 19-season tenure that included every Red Bull championship — and was subsequently signed by Aston Martin as Managing Technical Partner. The RB20 is therefore the last car Newey will be remembered for at Red Bull, which is the framing LEGO® has leaned into in its product copy.

People

Five names you can't tell the RB20's story without — two in the cockpit, three in the factory.

Max Verstappen

DRIVER · CAR #1

The 2024 drivers' champion. Verstappen scored 437 points across the year, won nine Grands Prix, and clinched his fourth consecutive title at Las Vegas with two rounds remaining. His drive from 17th to first at São Paulo in pouring rain — described by several outlets as one of the great wet-weather F1 performances — is the defining single race of the RB20 season.

Sergio Pérez

DRIVER · CAR #11

Pérez's fourth season at Red Bull was his last. He scored 152 points to Verstappen's 437, and Red Bull's December announcement that he would leave the team "with immediate effect" came after Red Bull lost the constructors' championship to McLaren by 14 points. He was replaced for 2025 by Liam Lawson.

Adrian Newey

CHIEF TECHNICAL OFFICER

The most-decorated F1 designer of his generation, with 12 constructors' titles and 13 drivers' titles to his name across Williams, McLaren and Red Bull. The RB20 is his final Red Bull car — he announced his departure in May 2024 and signed for Aston Martin as Managing Technical Partner from 2025.

Pierre Waché

TECHNICAL DIRECTOR

Red Bull's Technical Director since 2018 and the engineer most responsible for translating Newey's concepts into raceable cars. With Newey announced as leaving, Waché's role on the RB20 — and on its 2025 successor RB21 — became the team's central technical question.

Christian Horner

TEAM PRINCIPAL

Red Bull's team principal since the team's founding in 2005. In February 2024, an internal Red Bull GmbH investigation cleared him of allegations brought by a female employee. Horner remained team principal through the RB20 season and into 2025, but the year reshaped Red Bull's senior staff around him — Newey gone, Pérez gone, sporting director Jonathan Wheatley signing for Audi.

The build

251 pieces, 34 stickers, 18+ rated

77243 is the lowest piece-count car in the 2025 Speed Champions wave at 251 pieces — four less than the SF-24 (255) and the MCL38 (255) it shares the F1 grid with. The build runs to 34 stickers across the body, alongside 16 printed parts, and is officially rated 18+. The age rating is the giveaway that this isn't a difficulty signal — the car is no harder to assemble than the rest of the wave. LEGO® classifies any Red Bull-branded set as an 18+ adult build to keep its retail presentation clear of the energy-drink marketing boundary.

Livery and printed parts

Most of the RB20's visual character lives in the stickers. The midnight-blue base, the red Red Bull bull, the yellow nose flashes and the Oracle wordmark all arrive as decals applied to neutral 1×4 and curved-slope elements. The 16 printed parts are saved for the most-photographed surfaces — the front wing endplates, the halo, the engine cover ridgeline and the rear-wing endplates — where stickers would peel or misalign visibly. Reviewers consistently flag the printed halo as the build's signature flourish.

Where it sits in the 2025 wave

77243 ships alongside three other 2024 F1 grid cars — 77242 Ferrari SF-24, 77244 Mercedes-AMG W15 E Performance, and 77251 McLaren MCL38. Together the four sets form the most complete single-year F1 grid LEGO® Speed Champions has ever released, and they share a footprint, scale and box format that makes shelf-displaying the set as a row possible without extra work.

Minifigure

The set includes one Oracle Red Bull Racing F1 driver minifigure with a printed helmet and printed race suit. It is a generic team driver — not a specific likeness of Verstappen or Pérez. LEGO® has consistently declined to use real F1 driver names or faces on Speed Champions minifigures, and the policy holds for the 2024 grid wave.

FAQ

Is LEGO® set 77243 still available?
Released on 1 March 2025 at US$26.99 / £22.99 / €26.99 / A$44.99. As of the 2026-04-24 availability check, LEGO.com still lists 77243 as current. Brickset confirms an 18+ age rating.
Why is LEGO® set 77243 rated 18+?
Not because the build is difficult — it isn't. LEGO® classifies all Red Bull-branded Speed Champions sets in its adult range to keep clear of energy-drink marketing rules. The construction itself is no harder than the rest of the 2025 wave (which is rated 9+).
How big is the LEGO® Oracle Red Bull Racing RB20 F1 Race Car when built?
Roughly 21 cm long built — the same footprint as the rest of the 2024 F1 grid wave (77242, 77244, 77251). Width is approximately 8 cm at the rear wing.
How many pieces does LEGO® set 77243 have?
251 pieces, 34 stickers and 16 printed parts, plus one generic Oracle Red Bull Racing F1 driver minifigure with printed helmet and race suit. Per Rebrickable and Brickset inventories.
Whose Red Bull RB20 is this — Verstappen's or Pérez's?
The set is brand-licensed to Oracle Red Bull Racing, not to a specific driver. The minifigure is a generic team driver, not a Verstappen or Pérez likeness. Most of the cultural weight, however, sits with Verstappen — 437 points and a fourth consecutive drivers' title on this chassis, against Pérez's 152 points and December exit.
Is this a 6-stud or 8-stud LEGO® Speed Champions set?
8-stud. 77243 is from the current LEGO® Speed Champions scale. The line shifted from the original 6-stud scale in 2020 with set 76895 Ferrari F8 Tributo.
What other LEGO® Oracle Red Bull Racing Speed Champions sets are there?
The 2025 wave includes 77243 alongside 76911 Aston Martin Valkyrie AMR Pro and Aston Martin Vantage GT3 — but the closest direct predecessor on the F1 side is 76911 Oracle Red Bull Racing RB18 (2022), Verstappen's first title car. Together those two sets bookend Adrian Newey's late-career Red Bull tenure.
