what?! :P

Yeh i like Kimi's, Hekki and Alonso's.

the tribal desgins are pretty cool.

I did spend quite a while frantically looking for an alternative but Kimi's helmet really is a nice one.
:hehe: i think you secretly like him.

admit it Amanda you have a kimi poster on your wall.. :P
Never! :yikes:


I've got to agree with everyone on Button's helmet, it's a fairly disgusting colour. Barrichello's helmet isn't my favourite design wise but at least it's distinctive, alot of the others look very similar to each other.
Rubens Barrichello is the only driver who still has a simple helmet design. Like they used to make in 90's before sponsors where prominent on helmets. Which I think is kinda cool. He's been around so long his helmet design has become retro.
What I also like about Barrichello is that he has never changed the design of his helmet in his racing career. It might have been refined a little, but if you look back over all his helmets, they're pretty much identical. I get frustrated when drivers mess with their helmet designs >.<

I don't like the majority of modern helmets. There is just far too much going on with them, and they convey very little. I prefer a much more minimalist designs, the best of which is:

The design is simple, but it conveys every a driver could want. The yellow is striking and goes with the stripes to clearly show Senna's nationality, something which was very important to him.

I don't like the helmet design of most young drivers.. the design is really.. a mess
I'd rather stick to those onesu can recognize in the distance like Rubens helmet..
Hamilton helmet is awesome.. but it's not exactly his...

and DC helmet is absolutely superb, Hakkinen too

i like the helmets when the driver sticks with a signature color or style, like Hamiltons, compared to some of hte other drivers who's helmet changes with the car they drive.

I think Grosjean's is great, good combination of colours. Now at least I can admire his helmet while he kamikazes other drivers.

Same. Like how Alonso changes his colours year by year, depending on sponsors and crap.

A drivers helmet should be like their signature. But that's just my opinion anyway.

Yeh it was cool when DC wore colin mcrae's helmet too as a mark of respect.

Also like the way Rubens has changed his for Massa.
