Esteban Ocon will race with a helmet dedicated to childhood idol Michael Schumacher. The Alpine rider underlined by presenting his helmet on Twitter that Schumacher represents for him a source of inspiration that has guided him throughout his career. The colors of the helmet are truly iconic and can be traced back to the seven-time German world champion.
At the top of the helmet will continue to stand out Eiffel Tower that the French always carry with him with pride. Ocon also said that “My signature is inspired by Schumacher’s” and in the back of the helmet, the one that protects the nape of the neck, the Alpine rider has put all the editions won by Schumacher of the Italian Grand Prix, i.e. those held in 1996, 1998, 2000, 2003 and 2006.
