JV black helmet, anyone knows why ?

Hi,

JV tested the Sauber today, but he was wearing a black helmet. Anyone knows the reason for this ? I sincerely hope he has no intention of changing his livery because I think it's one of the nicest helmets on the grid.

"Trulli was slowing down like he wanted to have a picnic" LOL

yes because Trulli did this some weeks ago too

as well as Panis. Just carbon fibre base, and what the guys said above .

I don't know why, but I somehow like black helmets.

REHAB IS FOR QUITTERS

JV has a really cool helmet, its got the best design on the grid imo.

Anyone like purple helmets?

meh why not..

Obviously Sauber have pinpointed the problems with handling, and are now going about reshaping the drivers head.

I think Jacques is testing a new Schuberth's helmet. Maybe he'll swap Bell for Schuberth

the unpainted cars looks beautiful too, when you can see the carbon-fibre lattice.

I agree... a pure carbon-fibre car would look fantastic on the grid!
