Favourite helmets

[jens]

As there is a topic, where people discuss about Alonso's helmet, then suddenly a question raised. Which F1 driver's helmets are your favourites?

Mu favourite is the helmet of Albers. :) And from the past Bellof's as well. :p :

I liked Trulli's chrome helmet. My favorite "fairly" recent helmet is Senna's. For old helmets, I always liked Graham Hill's and Innes Ireland's.

I still love Eddie Cheever's helmet. I love his Arizona design.

I've always liked helmets that stood out.

As a kid, my favorite was Graham Hill's helmet. More recently, I really liked Mo Gugelmin's.

Jacques Villeneuve is very unique. I mean, the main stripe is pink!

[Mifune]

wasnt this done a couple of years ago?

anyway my answer is still the same, Francois Cevert

Jos Verstappen's helmet at the Canadian Grand Prix in 2000 :up:

JPM's yellow one, Tiago Monteiro's, Jacky Ickx's. As a rule I prefer ones without a flag. Oh yes - Christian Klien's Red Bull helmet.

[Erki]

Not a Formula 1 one(so many ones...) but Joao Barbosa's helmet is pretty cool.
Also not Formula 1 one but Markko Märtin's chrome helmet looks good.

If anyone has time, maybe they can attach pictures, ok? :)

Good point about Grouillard's helmet design. Black and recd, as I recall.
