The world of high-speed racing is moving from the track to the card table. Formula 1 and Mattel have teamed up once again to release a special version of the famous card game called UNO Elite™ Formula 1. This new edition lets fans interact with their favourite drivers and cars while they play. After the success of their Hot Wheels partnership, this card game is the next big step for both brands to reach fans who love competition and collecting.
A new look for the classic deck
The design of this edition goes far beyond the standard red, blue, green, and yellow cards everyone knows. The collection features more than 100 unique Elite Action cards. These cards are designed with various colours and special foil variations that catch the light, making them look more like high-end collectables than simple game pieces. In total, there are more than 1,000 unique cards across the entire series, giving fans plenty of visual variety to hunt for.
Detailed graphics and racing icons
Every part of the sport appears on these cards. The artwork includes all 10 Formula 1 teams, showcasing the specific cars and drivers that fans see on TV every weekend. Beyond just the racers, the card designs feature team principals, reserve drivers, and even the unique helmets used by the athletes. For those who love the technical side of the sport, certain cards highlight famous race circuits, adding another layer of visual depth to the game.
What is inside the Core Edition Starter Pack
For those ready to start their collection, the 2025 Core Edition Starter Pack provides everything needed to get going. It comes with 112 cards that follow the standard rules of UNO, plus two exclusive promo cards. To add more excitement, the pack also includes four game booster packs. Each of these boosters contains 10 Elite Action cards, ensuring that players get a good mix of team cars, drivers, and those special foil finishes right from the beginning.
Expanding the collection with booster sets
If fans want to find a specific driver or complete a team set, they can pick up the Booster Set. This expansion includes three packs, each holding 10 extra Elite Action cards. This set makes it easier to track down rare cards featuring team principals or reserve drivers. Because there are so many variations available, these booster sets are the main way for players to customise their decks and show off their favourite parts of the racing world.
This release marks a big moment for fans who enjoy both gaming and motorsports. By turning the speed of the track into a collectable card experience, Formula 1 and Mattel have created something that looks great and plays well. The UNO Elite™ Formula 1 sets are available for pre-order on Amazon now and should arrive by mid-December 2025. If you miss the first wave, you can find them at other major stores starting in 2026.
