Every F1 fan already owns a team cap. If you want to give something they'll actually remember, you need to think past the merch stand. As sports artists who spend a lot of time obsessing over the sport, here's what we'd put under the tree for the petrolhead in your life.
1. A framed limited-edition F1 print. A statement piece for the office or garage — signed, numbered and made in Britain, capturing the speed and drama in a way a poster never will.
2. A detailed model car. A beautifully made scale model of an iconic car is the kind of thing that sits proudly on a shelf for decades.
3. A sim-racing upgrade. For the fan who races at home, a proper wheel or pedal set is the gift that turns the living room into a cockpit.
4. A track day or Grand Prix experience. The dream gift. Whether it's driving a fast car themselves or seats at a race weekend, nothing beats the real thing.
5. Team kit done tastefully. Skip the cheap merch — a good-quality jacket or a well-made cap in their team's colours actually gets worn.
6. A coffee-table book on the sport. For the fan who loves the history as much as the racing, a beautifully photographed book is a slow, satisfying gift.
7. Trackside essentials. If they go to races, thoughtful kit — a solid cooler bag, decent ear defenders, a compact rain jacket — shows you get it.
8. F1-inspired pieces for the home. Our mugs, coasters and puzzles bring a bit of race-day into everyday life without the race-day price tag.
The gift they'll still have long after this season's standings are forgotten is the one on the wall. Take a look through our F1 Editions and find the moment that means the most to them.
