If you thought Mickey Mouse retired his racing stripes after “Mickey and the Roadster Racers” went off the air, think again. Debuting just ahead of the Las Vegas Grand Prix later this month, Disney and Formula 1 have teamed up for a collaboration that’s as unexpected as it is electrifying — and you can shop it this weekend. Select styles from the 25-piece capsule will be available online at Disney Store at 3 a.m. ET on Saturday, Nov. 8. The rest of the collection will debut in person at the F1 hub in Las Vegas’ Venetian Resort. The campaign that is aptly named “Fuel the Magic” fuses the whimsy of Mickey & Friends with the sleek, adrenaline-fueled aesthetic of motorsport culture. So, you’ll be able to check out bold checkerboard patterns, racing stripes and a color palette that screams need-for-speed: black, red and white. The $15-$250 lineup includes apparel and accessories that feel equal parts playful and premium. And you can either choose something that simply tips your hat to the collab or go for a full-throttle fashion moment — there’s something for every fan. Among the highlights are two sweatshirts, a classic ribbed crewneck pullover and a hoodie, that remix Mickey’s iconic silhouette with racing-inspired motifs for $150. There are accessories that double as conversation starters, like a $15 sticker set perfect for personalizing gear, a $20 enamel pin and a $40 keychain that bring subtle flair. For those who want wearable merch, the moderately priced knit beanie for $50 and the baseball cap $55 deliver trackside style without trying too hard. And if you’re lucky enough to be in Las Vegas ahead of race weekend on Nov. 20–22, the full 25-piece collection will be available exclusively at the F1 Las Vegas Hub inside The Venetian Resort, turning the pre-Grand Prix buzz into a full-on retail experience. Ready to shop? Stay up late or wake up early on Nov. 8 because these pieces are bound to go lightning fast.
