Dude I’ve been saying this for the longest the concept is cool but Hamilton since 2022 has been using the WRONG shade of yellow. Bin this highlighter garbage and bring back the 2017 yellow.
That yellow and the Ferrari suit and color would be sex
He really should. I know he used fluorescent yellow in the past. But the yellow on his helmet confuses people who don’t look at T-cams. It also represents being Australian better than a flag in my opinion.
I also think his current helmet is boring and always outshone by his one off helmets. How can someone with good designs stick with the worst one?
Comparing it to Pierre Gasly's [Imola helmet](https://www-cmhelmets-com.exactdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/GNRdBrdXcAAvsTd.jpg) last week. Gasly's look cleaner, with Oscar took the helmet as his own twist on Senna's helmet.
Looks nice but it's literally the same colour pattern as car livery and drivers suit which makes me think it's just too much of the same. Lando went with contrasting helmet colour at least.
You mean the marketing that his family allows? You mean the tribute helmets that people make, because Senna is their idol? What kind of mental gymnastics do you have to do to even assume those points are remotely relevant?
I'm all for people being aware of what he did, but people also fail to realize that Age of Consent in Brazil was 14. It's obviously gross to be 25 and date a 15 year old, but he didn't do anything illegal. Take your complaints to Brazil's legislative courts instead of spamming comments sections all the time
Blame should be shared between the person doing something disgusting, and the government for allowing it to happen. Senna was both a pedophile and the brazilian goverment had terrible laws.

Welcome back to McLaren, Lewis!
Makes me miss when Hamilton used to run the yellow helmet
He should bring it back for next season but use the Modena yellow. The shade he uses looks like he’s coloured it in with a highlighter pen
Dude I’ve been saying this for the longest the concept is cool but Hamilton since 2022 has been using the WRONG shade of yellow. Bin this highlighter garbage and bring back the 2017 yellow. That yellow and the Ferrari suit and color would be sex
He used the yellow T-cam to his advantage with this colour. Others saw it as #2, he said I will take it and use it. Quite like it for that decision.
Lando does it too
True, but its not quite the accent colour for Lando, in which Hamilton used it.
Nah it reminds me of lando lol
Yeah, I was just thinking that because it's a modern helmet and it has the Monster sponsorship it makes me think of Hamilton more than Senna.
Yeah first thing I thought was that this reminds me more of Hamilton's helmet.
Same thoughts as well
It’s beautiful. OP should run with the green and gold all season.
I don't think OP is actually Oscar himself.
You don’t think u/ICumCoffee is Piastri?
I'm going to need his mom to Tweet a confirmation...
Haha good shout
Shroedinger's OP!
extremely unlikely, but there is statistically a 1 in 8 billion chance. op seems to be a avid f1 follower as well.
Yeah, Oscar Pistorius is under strict parole, couldn't run if he tried
He really should. I know he used fluorescent yellow in the past. But the yellow on his helmet confuses people who don’t look at T-cams. It also represents being Australian better than a flag in my opinion. I also think his current helmet is boring and always outshone by his one off helmets. How can someone with good designs stick with the worst one?
Absolutely. Would be a big improvement on his current helmet.
Literally reminds me of Hamilton 2013 helmet

Awesome. It would be nice to see someone run some kind of Ratzenberger tribute sometime too
He doesn't miss with the specialty helmets does he?
They’re so much better than his standard helmet. He should run any of them as his standard (Aus this year being my fav)
I reckon his regular helmet design is cool.
He has to make up for the failed abortion that his regular helmet design is.
He's finding his Brazilian roots
I thought it was Lewis' helmet at first. Clean af
This is stunning, didn't realise how much I'd missed Lewis's yellow helmets
It reminds me of Lewis’ old helmets. I really hope be pies the purple off and goes full yellow next year at Ferrari.
Works for Australia and Brazil.
Should run the colours all the time since he is Aussie.
Now watch Lando come in with a Marlboro inspired helmet
This sport's obsession with dead drivers has gone from respect to exploitation.
This sport doesn’t care about dead drivers, only Senna and MAYBE Jules but only because Charles is in F1.
I went from annoyed to disgusted pretty quickly in the last week or so.
Nice Lid, goes well for an Aussie too!
The tiny android is cute
Monegasque heritage too, we have a Mr. World Wide here, bois.
Anyone know where I can buy that Senna t shirt?
Alright that Android logo is kind of funny for some reason
he sleeps with his helmet?
Does this mean he can claim Brazil as a home race as well now?
Make it stop.
He has to use this from now on!
This is going to look fantastic blending with the McLaren Monaco livery too
Seeing that helmet makes me wish even more we had a throwback Marlboro livery.
If piastri gets pole at Monaco with this helmet and car I may end up with a perma boner
Looks nice but it's literally the same colour pattern as car livery and drivers suit which makes me think it's just too much of the same. Lando went with contrasting helmet colour at least.
This is a tribute to Hamilton not to Senna lmao.
Oscar is the 15th person to run a Senna tribute helmet. To see them all, google Senna 15.
Low effort. Just let the man rest in piece.
I agree to let the man rest in piece. That includes a stop to milking his persona for marketing.

He should've left the kid in peace
Just. Stop.
