Lando Norris, the reigning Formula 1 champion, had the opportunity to see his wax figure for the first time at Madame Tussauds in London. This replica will be inaugurated just before the grand prix in his country, the British Grand Prix.
The McLaren driver, who achieved his first championship title at the 2025 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, has worked for months with artists from this well-known attraction. Additionally, he has donated a race suit that will be exhibited alongside an exact replica of his helmet used during the 2025 season.
After seeing the figure, Norris commented: “Seeing the finished figure and being next to it is really surreal; it’s like looking at another version of myself. I’m used to seeing myself in photos or videos, but this is a 3D representation”.
The managing director of Madame Tussauds, Steve Blackburn, expressed his gratitude to Norris for the donation of the key pieces of the race suit, stating that this adds a special touch to the figure. “We are eager to welcome fans and see them pose with Lando throughout the summer”.
This wax figure of Norris will be located in the area known as Culture Capital, and will share space with other sports legends, including the seven-time F1 champion, Lewis Hamilton, and figures such as Cristiano Ronaldo and Kylian Mbappé.
Additionally, the museum will organize a contest where fans can win a signed cap from the driver.
