Of course, in the 71-year history of Formula 1, many drivers have been there and their fans remain loving the sport due to those old-school drivers. This time, we bring you a helmet of one of the greatest and most iconic drivers in the history of the sport, seven-time World Champion, Lewis Hamilton.
During his F1 career, which started in 2007, Hamilton has won seven World Championships, the first with McLaren in 2007 and six with Mercedes (2014, 2015, 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2020).

The Significance of Lewis Hamilton’s 2020 Helmet
Lewis Hamilton’s 2020 Formula 1 helmet design was special on several different fronts. First of all, he dominated the 2020 F1 season winning 11 of the 16 races he entered to win his seventh World Drivers’ Championship.
With that title, he tied Michael Schumacher for the F1 record of most titles among drivers. Hamilton did so by winning the 2020 Turkish Grand Prix in impeccable fashion in tough weather conditions.
However, the helmet was also iconic because Hamilton painted it in black to protest against racism in the world and to bring attention to several race-related issues.
Hamilton’s beautiful black-purple F1 helmet quickly became a fan favorite and caught everyone’s attention.
Obviously, the original design with the six stars on the sides was replaced by a new, updated design with seven stars representing his seven championships.
Features of the 2020 Lewis Hamilton Racing Helmet Replica
The helmet’s temple is quite similar to the one Lewis Hamilton wore in the 2019 season, with wings on the sides. However, he had replaced wine red for purple in the wings for winter testing, while keeping a white base.
When Lewis Hamilton’s 2020 helmet turned black, the purple of the wins remained.
The main features of Hamilton’s F1 helmet designs over the last decade were kept, with his logo and racing number (44) at the top, and the HAM text in the back. However, the ‘Cristo do Corcovado’ art was scrapped and a BLM logo is visible, while the ‘Still I Rise’ text was replaced by ‘Still We Rise’.
Materials and Safety Innovations
Lewis Hamilton’s 2020 Formula 1 helmet has a shell & liner construction of fiberglass-reinforced nautical resin and expanded polystyrene. The interior is fully padded, while the visor is made of 3mm Polycarbonate 3mm.
