I have designed a print based on the drovers helmets I already new and some research into some older champions which I wasn’t sure on.
If anybody could look it over and let me know if it looks ok, if anything needs changing, and any general thoughts on it, I would be really grateful.
Thank you

11th January 2014, 14:42 at 2:42 pm #246952Max JacobsonParticipant@libertine it’s incredibly interesting to see the evolution of helmet design both in terms of shape and of patterns, and the growing sponsorship influence on them. Great job!
11th January 2014, 14:43 at 2:43 pm #246953Max JacobsonParticipantIt also illustrates very well just how exclusive a club the F1 World Championship Winner’s is!
11th January 2014, 14:45 at 2:45 pm #246954libertineParticipantThanks for your comments :) took quite a while to put together. And I tried to research as best I could, I just hope it is all correct!
11th January 2014, 15:09 at 3:09 pm #246955JackySteegParticipantVery professional looking, excellent stuff! It’s good to see something like this as I feel the evolution of the crash helmet (and driver safety in general) is just as interesting as the evolution of the race car.
11th January 2014, 15:12 at 3:12 pm #246956Lucas WilsonParticipantJackie Stewart looks like he had the first helmet that might have offered him some protection.

I mean I know he won it with the yellow-black colours when he was with Brawn, but that’s not the one really representing him.
11th January 2014, 18:33 at 6:33 pm #246959Oli PeacockParticipantYou could say that for a lot the helmets @hunocsi
11th January 2014, 18:37 at 6:37 pm #246960hunocsiParticipantTrue, but that was for me the most eye-catching.
11th January 2014, 21:05 at 9:05 pm #246961libertineParticipantI tried to represent each driver with the helmet that they won the championship in. Obviously a few drivers won multiple times. But that was the theme I was going for rather than the more iconic helmets that may represent them. Thanks for the comments though, its nice to see other peoples view on my work.
12th January 2014, 0:08 at 12:08 am #246962xjr15jaaagParticipantHow did you pick Vettels helmet?
12th January 2014, 10:07 at 10:07 am #246963pHParticipantI like it a lot.
Reminds me of another thing. In the late 80’s I got a prospectus for one of the Hungarian GP’s and there was a nice chart of all drivers’ helmets. I cherished it for many years. About a year ago I searched the internet for something similar for other seasons, but to no avail. Perhaps I was not good enough, does anyone know of such a thing?12th January 2014, 13:34 at 1:34 pm #246964libertineParticipantVettels helmet I think was this seasons. The idea being that its the most current. Would you suggest a more iconic helmet for Vettel @xjr15jaaag ?
