This is a custom Formula 1 helmet of one of Lewis Hamilton‘s 2019 helmets. This was a special edition for the 2019 British Grand Prix, at his home circuit, Silverstone.
Our Happy Customer asked us to add Hamilton’s racing number (44) on the back of the design, alongside the ‘HAM’ and ‘Still I Rise’ inscriptions, and it simply looks fantastic.

As always, it was done without adding any extra fee, and the customer was happy with the work of our group of artists.
The Inspiration Behind the 2019 Lewis Hamilton Helmet
For his 13th race at home, Hamilton showed up with the Union Flag on his helmet. At the time the 2019 British Grand Prix arrived, the 2019 Formula 1 season had seen Hamilton winning six of the first nine events.
For the 10th race, at Silverstone, it was Hamilton’s teammate, Valtteri Bottas, who qualified for Pole Position. From second on the grid, Hamilton won the race displaying his special helmet.
The design was roughly the same from the entire season, but the Union Flag was added at the top and the back.
Design and Key Features
For this custom helmet, our Happy Customer elected to replace the Cristo do Corcovado at the back and add Hamilton’s 44.

The Significance of Silverstone 2019 for Hamilton
The 2019 British Grand Prix was important for Lewis Hamilton in a couple of different areas. The victory was his 80th win in Formula 1 and his 59th for the Mercedes AMG Petronas F1 Team.
Moreover, it was Hamilton’s sixth victory in the British Grand Prix, establishing a new record of wins for the event. Before the race, Hamilton was tied with two-time champion Jim Clark and four-time champion Alain Prost.
Since then, Hamilton has won the British Grand Prix three times (2020, 2021, and 2024) to set up a record for the most wins in a single Grand Prix with nine.

Conclusion
The 2019 Formula 1 World Championship season was an important one for Sir Lewis Hamilton and his fans. The seven-time champion won his sixth title that year after finishing second in the 2019 United States Grand Prix.
It was a tough season, as the Mercedes F1 team lost Niki Lauda, its non-executive chairman, on May 20th, 2019. It was a difficult and emotional season, but the team had a dominant first half that saw Hamilton winning seven of the first 10 races, and his teammate Valtteri Bottas winning a couple more.
The second half saw a big challenge from the Scuderia Ferrari, with Monegasque Charles Leclerc winning the 2019 Belgian Grand Prix for his maiden victory and following it up with an epic win at Monza.
Red Bull also put up a fight, with Max Verstappen winning three times, in Austria, Germany and Brazil.
Hamilton sealed his sixth title (and fifth with the Mercedes team) after Bottas won the US Grand Prix and he finished second. With two races to spare, both Hamilton and Mercedes had sealed the Drivers’ and Constructors’ Championships, respectively.
The Englishman ended the season with 11 victories after he won three races in the second half of the season (Russia, Mexico and Abu Dhabi). Mercedes won 15 of the 21 races of the season, including the first eight consecutively.
