    I think Glock’s is the best ‘new’ design. I like what Liuzzi has done with his national colours but I’m not a fan of drivers going for their home colours as it is quite generic and a bit less creative.
    Jaime’s + Petrov’s is brilliant too.
    Seb’s is a bit bland but I doubt that’ll stick around for long anyway.
    Glad Massa has kept basically the same design (although the bottom can appear a bit messy esp with Santander logos just plonked at the side) and Hamilton has too.
    Personally I hope Senna just makes the grid as he has a cracking helmet!

    • I agree, Glock’s helmet looks terrific. I really like what Liuzzi has done with his helmet and the Italian flag.

      Vitaly Petrov’s looks great from the front but not too keen on the side view.

      Unlike you, I think it is nice when drivers go for their national colours, especially if they can do it stylishly like Liuzzi. I think Jenson’s helmet is cool.

      I like the majority of the helmets. I’m not too keen on Webber’s, di Grassi’s and Sutil’s helmets though.

      I may be biased but I would say my favourite design is Seb Buemi’s. I like the simple yellow top and sides with the big Red Bull stickers. I think it looks great :D

        I just don’t feel it’s really showing the driver or very original when drivers slap their national colours on. It doesn’t really do much for me.
        Buemi’s is cool. Sutil’s is quite possibly one of the most boring ever :P
        I want Trulli’s helmet to be unveiled; he had a cracker last year and I hope he has a good one this year. His 09 shiny one was one of my favourites of all time

    Heikki Kovalainen’s helmet is missing!!

  3. SaloolaS says:

    Although I don’t like Kubica, his helmet is my favourite. 2nd best is probably Alguersuari. But my favourite driver (Heikki) usually has a good one too, can’t wait to see his.

  4. I like Massa’s design and colours. Liuzzi’s design is also cool. O don’t like Rosberg’s.

  5. Chris Ward says:

    Like Luiuzzi’s best, Petrov’s is worst. Runner-up is Glock.

  6. MiasF1World says:

    Glock,di Grassi and Kubica´s helmets is my top 3. :)

  7. The helmets should show something personal of the drivers, most are too commercial, especially the Red Bull ones. Hamilton at least sticks to his design and I like the story behind that

    Vettel’s creeps me out, looks like you could pop it open and see his brain.

  9. TommyB says:

    I think Rosbergs could possibly be the worst helmet in F1 history. I hate it so much, he completely ruined it by making it grey, it’s bad enough changing your helmet to match the cars but Rosbergs petty attempt is embarrassing.

    Alonso’s is the coolest, I absolutely love it, so glad he kept the blue and it really shows up from the red Ferrari :D

  10. Cubejam says:

    Hmm.. most of them look utterly disgusting compared to last years helmets. Di Grassi & Alonsos helmets are my favourite ones.

    Yuck to the rest of them.

  11. wasiF1 says:

    I did like Vettel’s & Kubica’s helmet.
    Interesting post.

  12. thrinne says:

    None of them really grab me. All too fussy and plastered with random sponsors logos but i guess thats the game these days. I’m intrigued by the top of Vettel’s, agree with ‘mellery’ that you expect his brain to be on show! I also quite like de la Rosa’s just for the simplicity.

  13. Montster says:

    helmets today are becoming too flashy….. Glocks helmet is possibly the worst I have seen in a while with regards to it being too flashy.

    What happened to helmets like Sennas, Mika Hakkinens etc – simply, easy to recognise, and didn't change that often so it became synonymous with who they are as a driver. I don't mind if a helmet evolves, but these days one helmet looks like the next and it has made it more difficult to tell who a driver is at a glance.

    Don't get me wrong, I like that they helmets are more artistic, but they are becoming messy…..

    And its sad when a driver has to "sell out" and have a corporate design…..the driver begins to loose his identity.

    Hi,does any one know were you can purchase these helmets, thanks

  15. Counter says:

    1.T.Glock
    2.M.Weber
    3.R.Kubica

  16. Bob says:

    I think Buttons is the best. Using the Union Jack theme to make his initials and keeping to the design makes it recognizable. I also like that Hamilton does not monkey around with his design. Vettle’s is funny but he clearly changes designs like I change socks.

  17. nickro says:

    Hi,I think the coolest helmet is that it’s Kubica :)

  18. Gus Greensmith says:

    Although timo’s helemt is great, i have to hand it to sebastion vettels MONACO helmet. It was outstanding! the lay out and most of the colours were just amazing!

  19. kyle pea says:

    1. T glock— Best by far
    2. R kubica
    3. J trulli
    4. V luizzi

  20. I have to say they are all pretty good looking but it would have to be the Red Bull ones that really catch my eye, their design and colors just fantastic!!!!!!! Have booked marked the page!!!!

    Rubens and Schumacher’s helmets are also really cool, these would be awesome if they were made available to the general public.

    Great post thanks for sharing
