Looks like Vettel's kid painted his Suzuka helmet.

You can never go wrong with an Evel Knievel helmet

Drivers look like they're starting to see how far they can stretch the 'one design' rule towards the end of the season.

Nice to see the returning Senna reference! And of course the yellow :-). Wonder if he did the inside green again.

Great to see the yellow helmet back. I wonder if he went green padding as well?

I´ve noticed both Massa and i think Perez running green padding with Hamilton running white? since he switched to white paint.

Since he switched with bell, the first bell during pre season(2015)testing had the green padding but after he used only white.

I'd like if Hamilton would go back to using a yellow helmet full time...
Favourite driver: Lando Norris
Favourite team: McLaren

Turned down the chance to meet Vettel at Silverstone in 2007. He was a test driver at the time and I didn't think it was worth queuing!! 🤦🏻‍♂️

BBC commentators today said Hamilton explained recently that he stopped using his previous colours because they clashed with the Mercedes/Petronas livery.

very nice, i really liked that color scheme.

was there ever a specific reason Brawn picked that 'lime' and white combination?
