Has to be Jenson’s for me. Though when I used to ride I always had a black one – or Volvo fodder as my intructor used to call it.

Robert Kubica’s helmet is the best :)

Petrov, Button, Massa and Alguersuari have the best designs. Trulli, Kovalainen, Perez and Kobayashi also have nice designs. I’m really not a fan of Heidfeld, Buemi and Vettel’s, though; I hate helmets that are in team or corporate colours (even if Heidfeld had that design drawn up for Singapore 2010) because they just blend in with the car too much and look totally generic.
Adrian Sutil had the ugliest helmet last year, and he still does, but he’s got stiff competition from di Resta, Maldonado and d’Ambrosio.

Tough one, but Schumacher just gets it for me. Like many others, I like both the Mercedes driver’s lids. I like Heikki’s too, the green and black works well with each other.
I think my favourite helemt of recent times was Button’s monster helmet he wore during Race of Champions in 2009 though, looked stunning!

Lewis!! Basically any helmet from toro rosso or Mclaren I like D:
sozavele (@formula-1) said on 7th April 2011, 9:02
The only reason why Hamilton is top is beacause of his fan base. His helmet is actually quite dull and overall not as viberant as some of the others. From now on people should vote on what the poll entails not on personality. I voted Heidfield when I hate him and support Alonso, beacuse I thought Heidfield had the best helmet.
