A brand-new Monopoly F1 has been announced! Here’s everything you need to know.
Forget houses and hotels, taxes and mortgages: the new Formula 1 Monopoly Edition is a completely reimagined version of the iconic board game, redesigned with a full motorsport twist.
How to play Monopoly F1
The initiative is part of a wider strategy to bring the sport closer to families, marking one of many partnerships the sport has established with major brands. Global pre-orders are already open, while the official release date is set for July 15.
The changes compared to the classic version are significant: players will no longer take on the role of property moguls, but will instead manage their progression across the official Formula 1 calendar.
Traditional tokens are replaced by helmet-shaped miniatures, with players able to choose their favourite team — a detail that will surely delight fans across the grid.
The most important change is the core mechanic: passing GO no longer grants money, but instead championship points. The ultimate goal is no longer to bankrupt opponents, but to fight for the top of the Drivers’ and Constructors’ standings, aiming to win the Monopoly Grand Prix.
Official Monopoly F1 statement
With more than 165 years of experience in creating play experiences enjoyed by over one billion people worldwide, Hasbro brings its expertise to this new version, which captures the drama and excitement of Formula 1 in a fresh and engaging way.
Players race around every location on the calendar, battling for Championship points and wins as the Season goes on. Instead of collecting $200 when passing GO, players choose their favourite Formula 1 team and race their helmet tokens around the board’s central track, competing to win the MONOPOLY GRAND PRIX.
The game will be available for global pre-order from May 20 ahead of full release on July 15. This collaboration marks the latest in a series of collaborations for Formula 1, creating new ways for fans to connect with the sport beyond the track.
Emily Prazer, Chief Commercial Officer of Formula 1, said: “Monopoly is one of the most iconic and best-loved board games in the world, so we’re thrilled to bring a Formula 1 twist to such a classic. This edition captures the excitement and competitiveness of the sport in a fun, accessible way, and we’re confident fans of all ages will love going head-to-head with their friends and family when they take to the grid and compete in the Monopoly Grand Prix.”
Billy Lagor, President, Toy & Games at Hasbro, said: “Formula 1 is one of the most iconic sports properties in the world, and we’re excited to bring the adrenaline of race day – roaring engines, pit lane drama, and split-second strategy – into a game night experience.”
“We’ve reimagined the classic Monopoly experience through the lens of F1: the circuits, the rivalries, the relentless pursuit of the podium to create something that feels authentic to both worlds – a game that F1 fans and Monopoly fans alike can sit down to and immediately feel at home. The collaboration between our teams produced something genuinely special, and I think fans on both sides are going to feel that the moment they open the box.”
