Jenson Button to use fan’s helmet design
18th June 2009, 18:44 by Keith Collantine 19 Comments »
Jenson Button is using a special helmet for this weekend’s British Grand Prix.
It was designed by Bernie Zohl, a fan whose ‘Push the Button’ theme won a competition run by the Brawn team.

Cool, Lewis is doing the same thing too. Not see a picture of his yet though.

I think he’s just got a Union Flag on the top of his helmet, but it’s not a hugely different design otherwise.

I think Glock is doing this – wearing a fan designed helmet. Is it just me or does it get to be a bit traditional that drivers wera fan-designed helmets at Silverstone. If I recall correctly Wurz had it too in his last ever Silverstone race and frankly it was way better then his usual helmet-design. Despite being made by a 10-year old…

Aww, I really like Wurz’s helmet design. The black and yellow, red and white stripes with all the jagged and torn edges. Really stands out.

I think i will have ago …now where’s my crayons

I’m very impressed!!
I entered, but really couldn’t get the hang of the graphical interface you had to use to design the helmet. I thought I had a few good ideas (though none as cool as the winning one!) but couldn’t translate them onto the screen. I wish they’d offer a downloadable template that you could do your design on and then email to them…

I like it. If you are going to have a special design anywhere it should be at your home Grand Prix.

Oh no! This is a disaster – Hasn’t he realised that whenever a driver has a special helmet, or a one-off car paint-job, that that car will not finish the race!!

oh shut up
vincentaltair said on 22nd June 2009, 12:46
Ha! Well, looks like I was right. Hopefully he’ll be back to his normal helmet for the next race.

Push the Button?
Wasn’t that a Sugababes song?

button changed his helmet and got his worse result this year! I think he should go back to the other design and back to winning
