La Formula 1 will compete this weekend in the 70th Anniversary Grand Prix, still at Silverstone (in Great Britain) as in the previous race. To celebrate the event, 3 pilots are wearing new helmet designs.
Danil Kvyat (Alpha Tauri) was the first to unveil his new helmet, in video, on his Twitter account. The overall design does not change but the helmet is glittered to mark the occasion.

His former teammate Alexander albon (Red Bull) made more notable changes. The yellow part of his helmet is replaced by white. He also wishes his sport a happy birthday, with “happy birthday F1” written on the back of his helmet.

Finally, Lando Norris (McLaren) completely changes its colors. The Bristol native swaps the green part of his helmet for white. The blue is more flashy with the British flag appearing on each side. At the back is the Silverstone circuit as well as a large “seventy” in reference to the anniversary of the discipline. Norris had already ridden with a special helmet (designed by a 6 year old girl) last week.
