Sorry for a lack of updates recently, I've both been busy with real life and took a little bit of a break. I'm slowly catching up with helmets, so here's a bumper edition of helmet releases:
With Oggo's new tweak, we can now run GP4 with the correct helmet shapes per driver, as they were originally designed for, created by Jvinu, on whose excellent template I've been using all season.
Pierre Gasly

| Pierre Gasly 2021 Italian GP Helmet |
This is my favourite Gasly lid of the season, mostly because it's subtle and simple. He ran this helmet to commemorate his first victory in 2020. Sadly the 2021 weekend did not go very well for him at all. Gasly uses the Bell helmet.

| Charles Leclerc 2021 Italian GP Helmet |
Another French-man, another Bell helmets user. Both Ferrari drivers ran special helmets for their team's home race. Charle's been using a white version of his helmet most of the year, this time replacing the Monagasque flag for the Italian one, putting a Ferrari logo at the back of his helmet and on the top, and having Monza written in the tricolor's colours. Simple but effective.

George Russell

| George Russell 2021 Italian GP Helmet |
Mr. Saturday sports his fourth special helmet of the season, this an all red number. Again, nothing too complicated, but effective and evocative from the cockpit. George has been earning lots of points finishes in an improving car.

Carlos Sainz Jnr
 |
| Carlos Sainz 2021 Italian GP Helmet |
This is my first Carlos Sainz helmet I've painted this year, and it's one of my favourite helmets of the season. It's a simple mix of Italian and Spanish flags, with subtly changes of tone and instantly recognisable. The Spanish flag has a Hakkinen helmet feel to it. Chilli is his nickname, and he continues to run the star in memory of Maria de Villota. Sainz runs the Schuberth helmet.

Yuki Tsunoda

| Yuki Tsunoda 2021 Italian GP Helmet |
Tsunoda, running the Arai helmet, has gone for a brighter yellow and orange, similar to the pallette used at the Belgian GP. It's not particularly easy to tell him and Gasly apart, but as Gasly is racing towards the front end of the midfield, Tsunoda is mostly found either at the back or crashing out. Anyway, the grafitti has changed along with the colour scheme, and whilst I like the brighter colours, I'm not a big fan of it personally. At least he tends to wear his helmets more than once.
Sebastian Vettel
 |
| Sebastian Vettel 2021 Italian GP Helmet |
To be fair, Sebastian has been reusing his helmets more this season. With the darker base and the neon pink, it helps it all stand out more, and gone are the stripes on the world map, and in with the waves for the oceans and seas. The white strip at the top of his helmet is now also dark grey.
That's it for this post, that's 6 new helmets for you to enjoy.
