Disney and Formula 1 Release Minnie and Daisy‑Led ACADEMY Collection

The race‑timed capsule ties Disney characters to F1 Academy to promote female participation through limited collectible drops.

Overview

  • The ACADEMY capsule was announced this week as part of Disney and Formula 1’s season‑long Fuel the Magic campaign and pairs Minnie Mouse and Daisy Duck with F1 Academy branding.
  • The drop includes a baseball cap, pullover hoodie, t‑shirt and icon pin that use bold pink, purple and blue colors and racing/checkered motifs.
  • Reported prices span roughly $30 to $150, with specific items listed at about $30 for the pin, $55 for the cap and shirt, and $150 for the hoodie.
  • Distribution mixes channels to create urgency: items are being sold through the Disney Store, select store flagships, trackside F1 retail, F1.com and F1 Grand Prix Plaza while using early‑access windows, pre‑orders and limited on‑site assortments.
  • Coverage differs on immediate availability versus staged pre‑orders, a result of the campaign’s timed releases and limited trackside inventory that can cause mixed reporting and quick sellouts at Grand Prix events.
