I really liked that symmetry as well, but doesn't Lewis have a thing for black gloves or something? I remember a comment about his gloves in the past.raymondu999 wrote: I wonder what will happen with their gloves. They did that thematic thing where Schumi had the red T-cam, helmet and gloves, while Rosberg's were all yellow.
Well that is somehow correct. I went to the Hungaroring last year with a friend who isn't so familiarised with F1 and I was pointing out to him who is who when they were passing by and I remember people around me were like "How do you know which driver is in which car, how do you know them allraymondu999 wrote:Not all people realise that though - and I think the bigger issue would probably be onboard shots.

) and also heard that they did some beefing up on their helmets after Massa's Hungaroring crash.
I was thinking about the same thing. From the current driver line-ups MSC, Rosberg, Alonso, Massa and Hulkenberg wear Schuberth (is there anyone else?). There is a high possibility that he may switch his helmet manufacturer in my opinion.Shrieker wrote:Will Hamilton have to switch from Arai to Schubert ? Schubert definitely has the edge on motorcycle helmets AFAIK(especially in the sound -or lack thereof- department), and at one point I heard that their F1 helmets were bullet proof ( not to protect from snipers of course
Thoughts ?
that´s correct-todays Schuberth mention Schumacher as their development partner for all those years....stefan_ wrote:The first driver to wear a Schuberth helmet in Formula 1 was Nick Heidfeld, back in 2000. After that MS switched to their helmets.
Good for him as I think Schubert lids are generally better than Arai. He'll be hoping this doesn't happen to him though lolmarcush. wrote:
Pretty sure Hamilton will switch as Helmet aero is car relevant..
