Δε νομίζω να υπάρχει κάποιος ανάμεσά μας που να μην έχει παίξει στα πρώτα του χρόνια με τουβλάκια της Lego. Με τα τουβλάκια αυτά μπορείς να κάνεις τόσα πολλά, μέχρι να δημιουργήσει ένα μονοθέσιο Formula 1 σε πραγματική κλίμακα. Το καλοκαίρι, είχαμε δει μία Ferrari SF70H πραγματικού μεγέθους, η οποία δημιουργήθηκε από 350.000 τουβλάκια.
Η Renault θέλησε να κάνει κάτι παρόμοιο, γι’ αυτό και δημιούργησε την R.S.17, το μονοθέσιο με το οποίο συμμετείχε στη φετινή σεζόν, παίρνοντας τελικά την έκτη θέση, αλλά, για τον σκοπό αυτό, χρησιμοποίησε 600.000 τουβλάκια της Lego. Το μονοθέσιο θα τοποθετηθεί στο Atelier Renault στο Παρίσι και οι επισκέπτες θα μπορέσουν να το δουν από κοντά εν όψει των γιορτών.
