Sometime the helmets the drivers use during the testing season are not the same than those they enter the season with, but this one looks like a keeper. Alonso’s new helmet is a return to his previous Renault design and an obvious escape from his McLaren days helmet.
It also displays 2 ace cards on the back to mark his 2 world titles.
And here is the updated version as seen at the Renault R28 launch, sporting logos of his new sponsor:
I like this Alonso’s new helmet more that his 2007 one.











I like it, looks kinda old school, retro maybe.
Love the playing cards on the back too
Yes, It’s different alright. Nice touch with the aces.
it is a bit retro, but it is clearly Alonso’s helmet, unlike the design he had in McLaren …
That is a great helmet! The cards on the back are a great design element.
Two grease-stained thumbs up !!
