Except for the upside-down blue V, I think it's terrible. No flow. Just a mish-mash of shapes, colors, glitter paint & flat paint, mixed in with the RB logos. I hate the use of glitter paint on helmets. I don't know why so many drivers use it. I think flat paint schemes with a high gloss, clear coat look so much better.Starscreamer wrote:Max new helmet more blue

He ran with that last year I think and he's been using a weird rear spoiler on his lid since 2012/13. I don't really know how much of an advantage it gives, I'd imagine it was for driver comfort at high speed more than anything.GTO99 wrote:http://img1.auto-motor-und-sport.de/Seb ... 931867.jpg
Is that a wing on Vettel's helmet? I've never seen that.
Does anyone have other views of it?

I much prefer Max's more simple design of his childhood helmet.
Are the RB & TR drivers required to have the RB logo on the side of their helmet?

xDama wrote:Kimi uses a different wing because he drives with Bell and Vettel with Arai. Vettel has used this winglet for a couple of years though, but he switches a lot to the more standard shape. I thought one of the main reasons for the winglet was to prevent helmet-lift.
