2025 Topps Lights Out Formula 1 75th Anniversary Edition Racing Checklist

A London-only, encased Formula 1 release of 15 world champions for the sport's 75th anniversary

2025 Lights Out Formula 1 75th Anniversary Edition is a Topps F1 release marking 75 years of the championship. Topps's Ripped article says it went on sale on 25 April 2025 and could only be bought in-store at the Fanatics Collectibles flagship store in London. Each box holds 4 encased cards: 2 autographs and 2 numbered parallels. Topps's checklist PDF for this edition is no longer online, so the card list follows a secondary checklist: 60 base cards and 47 autographs, 107 in all. It is a separate product from the standard 2025 Lights Out set.

What's in the checklist

• Base: four designs, F1 75 Years, Halo, Lights Out and World Champion, each with the same 15 world champions (60 cards)
• Parallels: base cards exist only as numbered parallels: Orange /25, Black /10, Red /5 and Gold 1/1. No unnumbered version is listed
• Autographs: signed versions of all four designs (12, 12, 11 and 12 cards) in Purple /50, Orange /25, Black /10, Red /5 and Gold 1/1. A secondary checklist says parallels and autographs may vary by subject

Notable subjects

Lewis Hamilton, Max Verstappen, Fernando Alonso and Alain Prost appear in all four designs, signed and unsigned. Ayrton Senna, Michael Schumacher and James Hunt appear on base parallels only; none of them has an autograph in this set.

Grading considerations

The factory case is not a grade and is not proof of the card's condition. The card still needs full inspection of the stock, finish, corners, edges and centering. Identify each card by design, subject and colour, since none has a printed number, and match the serial number to the colour. Check autographs for smudging, fading and completeness, and look for scuffs or pressure marks left by the case.
