The winning race helmet of Somerset F1 star Lando Norris has been on display at the London oy Fair this week.

For this year’s fair the two themes are ASMR and Formula One and as part of that, Lando’s McLaren driver Lando Norris has agreed that One for Fun can borrow his lucky race winning helmet, which will be on the stand, at the centre of an outstanding range of vehicles and playsets.

The McLaren driver – who grew up in Glastonbury – won four races in the 2024 season at Miami, Netherlands, Singapore and Abu Dhabi but missed out on the drivers championship by 63 points to Max Verstappen.

2024 saw an increase in the popularity of Formula One racing, mainly driven by the Netflix documentary 'Drive to Survive' and the promise of a F1 film starring Brad Pitt to be released this year. Toy Company One for Fun have their sights set firmly on the winners podium with their fantastic range of exclusive Bburago F1 products, covering all the teams and focusing on the winning drivers.
