My husband has watched every Grand Prix from lap one and I had run out of ideas. Every morning before his coffee he opens his door with the face of a child. On 1 December a Ferrari came out and he shouted so loudly the neighbour woke up.

We stand behind everything we sell. Open the calendar at home: if it isn't what you hoped for, write to us within 45 days and we'll refund everything, no questions asked.
My husband hasn't missed a Grand Prix in forty years and he has everything already: caps, shirts, mugs. He didn't have this. Every morning he opened his door before his coffee and told me who had come out. When the Ferrari arrived he took a photo and sent it to all the kids.
He watches every Grand Prix. This year, in December, he opens one every morning.
You know him already: on Sundays the Grand Prix is sacred, he knows by heart who starts on pole and he has an opinion on every pit stop. He already has the cap, the shirt and the mug. Every Christmas it's the same question: what do I get him that he doesn't already have?
This year the whole grid is under the tree. On 1 December the first door opens, then a driver, an F1 car, the trophy cup, another team. On 24 December he has his full season on the shelf, and he shows it to anyone who walks in.
How the Racing Legends calendar works
Nothing to assemble. Nothing to fill.
-
Step 1
Put it where he'll see it
Take it out of the packaging and put it where he walks past every morning, next to the coffee machine.
-
Step 2
One door every morning
On 1 December he opens the first one and finds out who hit the track first.
-
Step 3
The grid fills up
F1 cars, drivers, the trophy cup and the decorations: every day a new piece to line up.
-
The result
His full season by Christmas
By Christmas Eve he has all ten teams on the shelf, and you nailed the gift.
You know how it goes with gifts for someone who loves F1.
A shirt from one team, a cap he already has, a single collectible F1 car for eighty euros. In here is the whole grid in one box: ten teams, ten drivers in their race suits, the gold trophy cup, the gold tree with the F1 car, the chequered bauble and the F1 snowflake.
Twenty-four collectibles, one a day. And if something doesn't convince you, you have 45 days to get your money back.
After Christmas you're not left with an empty box
When he opens the last door he's holding his season. On the living room shelf, on the desk at the office, hanging on the tree, next to the TV on Grand Prix Sunday. The drivers and the F1 cars stay on display all year, not just in December.
Chocolate is gone in a minute. December's grid is still there at the first Grand Prix in March.
1,184 fans have ordered it. 163 came back for another.
Who's behind this calendar
For us December should be about the wait, not about chocolates forgotten at the bottom of the box.
We chose this calendar because anyone who lives for Formula 1 deserves something they can really collect, one piece a day. If it isn't what you expected, you have 45 days to get everything refunded, no questions asked.
What fans say about the Racing Legends calendar
People who bought it say they open their door every December morning before their coffee and send the photo of the driver of the day to everyone who loves F1. It's loved as a gift for the man who has everything, from husband to dad to the son who collects drivers, and by the end of the month the whole grid is lined up on the shelf next to the TV. Plenty of them bought it a second time, to race each other at home.
I bought it for myself and I'm not afraid to say it. I've been a Ferrari fan since I was a girl. Opening a door a day and finding a driver in a cap is my morning joy.
I'm 41 and I bought it for me. My wife laughs, but then every morning she wants to see what came out. Lined up on the shelf under the TV they look the part.
My son is 11 and collects drivers. In December he gets up on his own at seven, which has never happened. On trophy cup day he ran the length of the hallway.
We got two, one for me and one for my son, and every morning is a race to see who opens first. Yesterday he won, but I got the McLaren, so it's a draw.
My dad is 68 and on Sundays you can't move him from the sofa because of the races. I gave him the calendar and he sends me the photo of the driver of the day on WhatsApp every single day. He never writes, but this he does.
The blue box with the red logo already looks great in the living room. Behind every door a different surprise: cars, drivers, the trophy cup. My daughter, who knows nothing about F1, now recognises the Haas driver.
My boyfriend already has everything to do with F1, I thought I'd never get it right. But every morning he texts me who came out today before he even says good morning.
When the red Ferrari came out we took a photo and sent it to all the relatives. It sounds silly but in our house it was a celebration.
On Sunday morning I open my door in front of the TV and wait for the Grand Prix with my coffee. When Hamilton came out in his red race suit we all laughed. It's a ritual now, recommended for anyone who's a real fan.
My brother is the hardest man to please, and yet he thanked me three times. He lined the drivers up on the bookshelf, with the cars in front.
I really liked it, a different piece every day. Only thing, being a Ferrari fan I'd have liked another Ferrari among the cars, but that's my problem. I'd buy it again.
We opened it all together at the table, each with our own day. On the day of the driver in the cap my husband won. Even my mother-in-law got hooked.
The gold trophy cup came out on the 19th and I put it straight on the bedside table. The boys look at it as if it were real. Even my son's friends asked where we got it.
My son is 9 and knows every team by heart. Every morning he runs to look at the colours of the race suit. He's already asked if we can get it again next year.
I gave the calendar to my father, a Ferrari fan all his life. He called me after the first door with a really odd voice. For him it's a way of being a boy again.
I open it before my coffee, I've become addicted. It starts my day with a smile, even when it's dark and raining outside.
Choosing a gift for my husband is really hard, he has everything. This kept him busy for a whole month. Every day a photo in the friends' group chat.
My son's favourite driver, Leclerc, came out on the 17th and he danced round the kitchen with joy. Worth it for that alone.
I bought it for myself because I've watched F1 with my dad forever. On my windowsill I've already lined up my starting grid. The green Aston Martin driver is my favourite.
By the end of the month I had the full grid on the shelf next to the TV, in the order they came out. My father-in-law supports Verstappen and asked straight away when his would come out. My wife says it looks like a museum, which suits me fine.
He told me it's the best gift I've ever given him. We open it together in the evening when I get back from work, he waits for me to open the door.
Every door is a surprise, the drivers in their caps are hilarious. My favourite came out on the first day and I'd have liked to wait longer for it, but that's just my own hang-up. Still happy.
I got one for my husband and one for my son, so they don't argue. They check on each other to see who has opened the most. Fun to watch.
I send it to my sister, she sends it to her boyfriend, and by the end of the day the chat is full of photos. A lovely way to feel close.
I've been a fan for thirty years and I never thought an advent calendar would move me. The snowflake with the F1 logo is my favourite door.
Beautiful, I'm happy with my purchase. If I really have to say something, I'd have loved a Silverstone-themed piece because we live nearby. Otherwise everything is perfect.
My 13-year-old daughter is a huge fan and spends her time arranging the drivers in order. Her desk is full of F1. The best-judged gift of the year.
The contents are great and my kids had fun. To my taste the box isn't very British, and on the 14th I absent-mindedly opened two doors together. Otherwise all fine.
For once he was lost for words. When he opened the door with the gold tree with the car on top he just said look at this. For him that's a lot.
Lovely calendar. On the 9th I absent-mindedly opened two doors on the same day and I was gutted, but my own fault. Otherwise all good, recommended.
My ten-year-old son and I raced to see who could open the door before breakfast. We laughed so much. We'll buy it again next year.
The black and white chequered bauble was the best one, everyone noticed it. It's now part of our Christmas tree for good.
It moved me, every day I woke up with a strange urge to open it. I'd have liked to choose the team colours I'd find, but that's my own demand. I recommend it.
I watched them argue over who should open the door. In the end they opened it together. On the day of the Red Bulls and the McLaren there was a bit of cheering.
Well-made product, the box looks the part under the tree. Inside, drivers and cars in all the team colours. My nephew went wild.
My brother is 35 and still has a Ferrari poster in his room. This calendar made his heart race. He sent me a five-minute voice note.
First one for my husband, then one for my 12-year-old nephew. From both sides I get photos every morning.
I gave it to him on 30 November to start December in style. Since that day mornings are different, he gets up before me.
I'd have preferred a bit more red in the box, but the contents won me over. Door after door I got to the 24th happy.
I now photograph every door and send it to my friends, they're all curious. A friend of mine has already ordered one for her husband.
My father has watched Formula 1 since there were only three channels. I gave him the calendar and every day he rings to tell me what came out. He never used to ring me.
My 8-year-old daughter discovered F1 thanks to her dad and the calendar. She's made her own garage out of the box.
My wife gave it to me because I know everything about F1 and never know what to ask for. Every day I open it slowly, with a coffee. Really a great idea.
I opened the Alpine driver's door and liked it, it's just that I support Ferrari and would have loved another red driver. Apart from that, I'd do it again straight away.
I bought the calendar for my grandson Lorenzo, 10. On the first day he made a video call so we could open the door together. What lovely moments.
On Sunday we open the door and watch the GP, my family has a new tradition. Since the calendar arrived my wife watches with us.
The drivers in their caps and team race suits are adorable, each with their own face. My son has given every one a name.

What our customers say
Excellent! 4.8/5 from 3,146 reviews
The best purchase in years
I bought it for my dad and ended up ordering one for my father-in-law too. Ordering was really easy, and every time I had a question they answered straight away.
One of my best buys
Honestly one of the best things I've ever bought. My husband opened his door before his coffee even, absolutely thrilled!
The whole family loves it
I bought it before December and I was pleasantly surprised. No chocolate, just something new every morning. Everyone at home loves it, me included.
Perfect Christmas gift
I gave it to my brother, who is impossible to please. He sent me a photo of his door every day in December. Thank you!
Well packed and good quality
It arrived well packed, identical to the photos, and the quality is better than I expected.

This is the third time I've ordered from this shop. Always the same: careful packaging, everything simple and products that do what they promise.
