Through their official channels, Formula 1 organised a poll asking fans to decide which of the new helmets for the 2025 season was their favourite. There are 20 teams, but each driver has a distinctive helmet, changing colours and motifs even in the same team.
While it was a poll to decide which helmet was better, it could have also been a popularity contest, as the winner, but a large margin, was Lewis Hamilton. The 40-year-old veteran starts a new chapter with Ferrari, making him the largest attraction this season of Formula 1. And his yellow helmet, which will contrast with the red jumpsuit, attracted 19% of the votes.
Hamilton's was followed by Lando Norris, a striking (and loud) yellow with black lines, with 14% of votes. It was followed by Leclerc's, much more elegant and restrained one, with a mix of red and white.
You can see the full list here. The only drivers who didn't receive any votes (well, their helmets) were Ollie Bearman and Isack Hadjar.
However, Hadjar's teammate at Racing Bulls (RB Honda), Yuko Tsunoda, will wear one of the most beautiful, white with Japanese maple leaves. I am now obsessed with that helmet, as well as Fernando Alonso's, with the usual blue and white colours from the Asturias' flag.
