Wow, McLaren got rid of the white Halo. Now Ron is really gone. I really like that Helmet. Classy and not overloaded with Graphics.

Yes, I really like this simple and flat helmet design. I like the fact that there are more drivers heading this way.

It looks pretty good from all angles. One thing I had not noticed is that it's got his name it as well

Fairly sure male porn stars don't have their helmets scrutinized to such a degree as on here

Kimoa is a clothing company founded by Alonso. I guess he got it written in his contract that the top of his helmet is his :D there isn't even a renault or McLaren badge on it.

Helmet designs are really down to personal choice so let's not judge the drivers too much..

I for one am very old school and like simple designs which look neat. Most helmets these days have way too many swooshes and glitter over them.

From a personal POV, Bottas' was one of the best designs and I really dislike his new lid. Alonso's is a masterpiece this year. Just the two shades of blue conflict one another and ruin an all time classic. Hope Mr.Vettel sticks to his design.
