With the Austrian Grand Prix just around the corner and Max Verstappen preparing for what has become his adopted home race in front of the Orange Army, will the Dutchman aim to impress his fans with a new special helmet?
Since returning to the calendar, Spielberg and Max Verstappen have always shared a special connection. The four-time world champion has claimed four victories, five pole positions, and eight podiums at the historic Austrian circuit, not considering his 2021 win and pole when the race was called Styrian GP.
This year, the stands will once again be awash in orange as Verstappen heads to the Red Bull Ring aiming for victory. Not one to miss the opportunity, he is expected to unveil a special helmet for the Austrian Grand Prix weekend once again.
So far, Verstappen hasn’t revealed the new helmet, but he’s dropped hints that something is on the way. He’s been asking his fans what they think of his helmets from past years—all of which were orange—so will we see another orange helmet at Spielberg? Only time will tell!
