GP4: 2022 Singapore GP helmets (part 2)

Daniel Ricciardo

Daniel Ricciardo 2022 Italian GP helmet

Danny Ric kepty this special helmet back until race day. Inspired by Moto GP legend, Valentino Rossi's special helmet from Mugello 2008, this features 'the Doctor's helmet design complete with Ricciardo's face on the top. To be honest, it was impossible to get the seam perfect, but I've got it as close as I could. Because the real helmet was quite reflective, it was hard to find good materials to recreate the face, especially as I needed several angles.

As last year, Daniel Ricciardo ran a glittery version of his standard helmet, painted this time be Jens Munser Designs. Thankfully it made it a reasonably easy update to do. 


Lando Norris

Lando Norris 2022 Singapore GP helmet

Lando is allowed one Quadrant helmet design a season, and this is the result, a halo inspired helmet designed by MDM and beautfully painted by JMD. Thankfully I was able to find good sources to recreate this helmet. It's not 100% perfect, but I'm happy with the result for such a complicated design.

Zhou Guanyu


Zhou Guanyu 2022 Singapore GP helmet

This helmet, designed by KV designs was apparently inspired by Zhou's tweet earlier this year, presumably about him loving bubble tea. The helmet has a very distinctive pink/purple base colour and topographical lines in glittery purple. Spewed all over are various clipart illustrations of bubble tea. 


Thanks again to Jvinu's helmets and templates, all four helmets have been added to the season pack.
