It builds into an impressive display piece measuring 61cm x 24cm x 13cm. I’d recommend setting aside a display space for the Ferrari SF-24 before you start building the kit.
If shelf space is at a premium, framing kits and display cases are available. The Internet also offers several DIY wall-mounting options ranging from self-adhesive hooks to wall-mounted fasteners.
WHAT ABOUT THE CAVEATS?
For all its attention to detail, the SF-24 did have one noticeable inaccuracy. Real F1 cars have significantly wider rear tyres, but in the Lego kit, all four tyres are of equal width. Such a glaring omission is puzzling on a kit that gets so many things right.
Unfortunately, the kit doesn’t include driver numbers for Carlos Sainz or Charles Leclerc out of the box. If you want to show your allegiance to either driver, then you’ll need to look for aftermarket sets.
HOW IT STACKS UP
The Lego Ferrari SF-24 is a detailed, large kit that makes an impressive addition to your display case or wall, despite the inaccurate rear tyres. It’s a great option for a solo or collaborative build and a good device-free way to relax.
