just been looking at testing pics. Kimi is wearing a schuberth helme(as worn by M&R Schumacher,Barrichello etc)

i dont know why more and more drivers are wearing these horrible helmets. must have some sufficent gains in aero performance or saftey.

Kimi used to wear an Arai GP5 (like i have) which is a lovely helmet to wear. really lightwieght, comfortable and stylish.

Oh, and dont get me started on why Panis has swap his Bell Helmet for a crappy Sparco-Peltor!!!!!!

anyone else noticed this or am i just down right sad????

The ones Michael and Ralf wear can survive a tank running over them. They are the safest F1 helmets currently avalible, so i see no reason why Kimi or anyone else) should not use them

He could at least have had the decency to ask you first, Iceman.

Schuberths are no doubt the best helmets out there. Everyone should wear them.

They give 10 extra hp.Better flow.



Everything in the past is better than today.It's true,I read it on the internet.
The Arai GP5 has 125+ health, and if you shoot it with teh ak47 it takes 65 health off, on teh other hand the schuberth has 150 health and even if it gets hit with the AWP it still only loses 40hp.....


anyone that plays counter-strike will know what im on about.

the Schuberts are bulletproof, but you have to be a very good hunter to hit the helmet and it looks a bit silly when you're in the crowd on the stands with a shotgun

I've just been out and bought one and I do feel much safer now, but I don't know how i will eat my dinner this evening. ;)

You mean you didn't think to buy one of the standard-issue water bottles with mouth insert tubes at the same time? That way you could have liquidated your meat and two veg, and problem solved!

and what is the result????????



a new lap record at Jerez :-D



I agree with iceman.... Arai helmets are the most beautiful and confortable helmets out there....

I´m sure all those guys are receiveing lots of money to wear that ugly helmet.... it may be bullets proof and stuff, but that´s not necessary in F1, no one is going to play CS on the drivers.... ;)




Now you CAN sponsor me, click picture and know how
They make it bullet proof so If a driver gets hit by debris or even crashes no damage is done to the driver. Wasn't the theory of Senna dying, the wheel struck him in the head?





ASS - Kick it, or Kiss it!

it went through the visor if i remember correctly

not thru the visor, thru the helmet
