Vettel's helmet
Discussion
Has he ever had his own helmet design? it seems to be completely sponsored by Red Bull, and I can't remember him ever having his own design, I've gone to Wikipedia and he had a Red Bull helmet in F3 and even when he stood in for Kubica at BMW in 2007 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sebastian_Vettel
I wonder if Ralf ever saw it?
Is it not enough that he drives a Red Bull billboard around the track. I can understand them wanting some sponsorship placement on his helmet, but i like the fact the drivers can show a bit of themselves in thier helmet designs, rather than just sticking thier head in a red bull can. There have been some great and memorable helmets over the years. (Graham/Damon's simple design, Barry Sheene's, Valentino Rossi) I just hope this isn't a sign of things to come, with sponsors being able to dictate what an individuals entire helmet looks like.
Yep Red Bull have enough placement on 4 cars on the grid without taking over a drivers helmet, so how far back does Vettels involvement with Red Bull go, has he ever had his own design? I did laugh at the pit wall crew in the Japanese GP.. oh there's a camera on me, I think I'll open this refreshing energy drink in a blue and silver can that gives you wings, ah thats better...

hahaha I did see that too - and the way he rotated the can so the label was even clearer.Forums | General Motorsport | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
