Sept. 27 (UPI) — Organizers of the upcoming Saudi Arabian Formula 1 Grand Prix promoted the event by assembling the world’s largest Lego Formula 1 car from 500,000 bricks.
The Saudi Automobile & Motorcycle Federation employed a group of professional Lego builders to assemble the green Formula 1 car at Jeddah’s Red Sea Mall.
The finished product, composed of 500,000 Lego bricks, took the Guinness World Record from Ferrari, which previously assembled a Formula 1 car from 350,000 bricks.
The Saudi Arabian Formula 1 Grand Prix is scheduled to take place in Jeddah in December.
