With the rumored Ferrari polybag are we getting 3rd wave in SP?

Pretty sure, since every polybag is based on a full-size Speed Champions car it's basically a guarantee we'll be getting a Ferrari 499P set.

It's a GWP, there may not necessarily be an 8-wide variant.

Just finished building the Red Bull SC F1 car and I can't get the radar dish wheel rims to stick to the rear (wider) wheel pieces properly. Anyone else seen that happen or know what might be going on?

Hi jonwill, the tires are different sizes.  For the larger rear tires, you need to use a 1x1 circular plate piece too behind the radar dish so it sits on better on the center of the rim

Yeah I found out that I was missing the 1 x 1 round plates.

Really good looking set though.

I'm not interested in that car, but I can't wait to get more of that windscreen piece in other cars.

Very neat looking! I've noticed that angular parts like wedges and wedge plates can be somewhat rare in pink (since those types of parts are often more common in themes like City, Speed Champions or Star Wars that use fewer of those sorts of colors). So it's very cool to get a car like this in Speed Champions!

That windscreen piece looks pretty cool as well!

Auuuchh... I found this Honda S2000 set leaks, and my impressions are controversial...
I love new colors, and it is great to see the parts in the rare shades. It is also a great opportunity for MOCs!

But the shape that TLG made... Well... It strongly reminds me of the Tibetan fox with a disproportionally (to usual foxes) high placed eyes. Really, S2000 had them not on the top of wheel arches...

Rage incoming . . . Tried to get the halo curved perfectly for the SF-24 set (to fit that clip right in the middle without it angling left or right) and THIS happened. New 7L hard hose piece coming from Denmark, but seriously LEGO, Cada does a molded halo piece for their F1 sets, and you give us one made of a piece that's crap. :wall:

 

This piece should have been made of soft rubber and not hard plastic that could be warped.

Is it the first time we have a steering wheel as a separate part (the "circle" only), instead of a wheel+stand regular part?

Nah, that steering wheel has been around for ages.

First time in speed champions it was used in Mercedes-AMG G 63, this will be the second time.

I know this part is quite old, but I was surprised to see it in the Speed Champions model. While G 63 (yeah, I forgot about it, my bad) is a "King-Size" model and must have some out-of-the-line solutions, this one is more "convenient" and, boom!, it got new steering wheel idea (that finally resolves the "offset problem" of older models) and a new "convertible" windshield. A big progress, finally!

 

I'm not sure if I can put it here, so please feel free to erase if it shouldn't be here. Here is my attempt to build the coming set (pretty similar to recent Mercedes convertible):

Guys. I have already built 6 out of 10 new F1 cars. And stickers completely don't bother me. But the halo 🙄. It's horrible. It doesn't look like it should. It bends, the clip is not centered. And no it's not my fault, I tried everything to get clear vertical position. So my question is. Does anyone have 3D render of halo like from CaDa?

Same thing for me, dude. Had to contact customer service for another red 7L hose for the SF-24.
