I'm not a fan of their designs. But this one is not their ugliest

By the moment Kimi's helmet is the best. Finally a great design after the 2008 period.

Vettel kept the same design?
I'm surprised, i was sure he would take the chance to introduce a new one.

Isn't this design a tribute to Schumacher? I don't think it'll change any time soon, but then he has that habit.

It's not as extravagant as the Red Bull ones, specifically the chrome holographic swirly things he had, but it's nice nonetheless.

Me too. And I still don't like it: between the over-the-top designs he had in the Red Bull days and this simplistic approach, there was plenty of room, IMHO, to do something interesting

The yellow in Seb's lid has a different tone

It's an Asian alcoholic drink company, Kimi created a beer with them called IceMan. Since 2015 it's Kimi's personal sponsor on the helmet and this year will be at the racing suit.

You mean Singha? The logo is too small for me to see, but they're a team sponsor now (they sponsored Red Bull before)
