Charles Leclerc loves special helmets and always finds an opportunity to show one off. For the Mexican Grand Prix, he will indeed have his special helmet. After the Italian Grand Prix at the Monza circuit, the Monegasque hadn’t had a chance to display any other special helmets to pay tribute to the location of the race. Now, for Mexico, he has made a very distinctive design choice.
In the video presenting the helmet, Charles Leclerc is captured with Andrea Ferrari and his entire team wearing traditional Mexican attire. The video is also quite entertaining and unusual for a helmet presentation. “Mexico, we are ready,” reads the description of his post. (CLICK HERE FOR THE VIDEO)
Charles Leclerc, the video, and the photo of the special helmet for Mexico
The helmet features the classic imagery that floods the Mexican paddock. It showcases the traditional mask used by Mexicans to honor the dead, which we commonly see in the paddock. Many have even donned this special mask, and it has become well-known in the paddock.
The chosen colors are, as always, white and red, reflecting the Monegasque flag, the birthplace of the driver, and typically used on his “base” helmet. The helmet appears very elegant and is particularly noteworthy in its design choice.
The Mexican weekend began in a unique way. Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz were filmed and photographed alongside other masked wrestlers, as well as in a video where they climbed into the ring and posed for everyone who attended the event. The photos and videos have since gone viral, sparking curiosity among fans of the Ferrari driver duo.
