Where the other liveries need a word of explanation, Ferrari red explains itself, and people who have never watched a race still point at it.

Data Matrix codes: Ferrari

One of these codes is printed on the bottom of the box, next to the barcode.

LEGO prints a different code for each production batch and region, which is why one item has several. The scanner recognises all 3.

About this minifigure

Scuderia Ferrari has raced in Formula 1 since the very first championship season and has never missed one. The Italian team from Maranello holds more titles than anyone else in the sport's history, has its own army of supporters known as the tifosi, and owns a colour that became shorthand for motor racing itself: rosso corsa.

In the shop, children ask for the red one more often than for any team by name. That is precisely where choosing by colour lets you down, because the box is sealed and red turns up elsewhere in this series too.

As a present for someone who has only just started watching races, Ferrari needs no explaining at all. You do not have to know the drivers or the rules to know what you are holding. Just remember that the red box is still bought blind: until the code is checked, the odds are the same as for any other model.

Did you know: Ferrari is the only team to have competed in Formula 1 without a break since the first championship season in 1950.
