The Red Bull driver will celebrate the inaugural race to be held in Miami by using a brand new helmet design incorporating “a bit of Miami vice flavour”. In a move away from his traditional, predominantly white helmet, Verstappen’s new design features navy and light blue colours, as well as pink accents. Verstappen unveiled his special helmet in a video shared on Red Bull’s social media channels on Tuesday.
