Pierre Gasly will partner fellow French driver Esteban Ocon at the Alpine F1 team this season – he recently unveiled his helmet for the 2023 season
Pierre Gasly has unveiled his new helmet ahead of the pre-season testing later this week. Gasly will make his debut for Alpine after making a move from AlphaTauri at the end of the 2022 season. The Frenchman will partner with fellow French driver Esteban Ocon at the Alpine team in the upcoming season. With just a few days for the pre-season run in Bahrain, Gasly has finally revealed his helmet design for the new season, and it has received mixed reactions.
The new helmet primarily features a golden colour with borders in white. While many fans liked the look of the design some fans didn’t like the colour combination. Gasly will be seen wearing this helmet later this week during the pre-season run at the Bahrain International Circuit. Meanwhile, Gasly’s new team-mate Esteban Ocon has already revealed his helmet for the season and it comes in a classy colour scheme of red and black.
Let us take a look at some of the reactions from fans on social media.
“Looks amazing. Nice to see Gasly out of the Red Bull machine and able to express his personality”, wrote a fan.
“Kinda bold going around with a gold helmet while only having won 1 race”, joked another fan.
“I don’t think Gasly has ever had a good looking helmet”, read a tweet.
“Well…its certainly bold to say the least, the gold accent to it yeah maybe a bit heavy on it but its good he carries the AH of Antoine Hubert thats really nice to see and his PG10 logo too.But also with JB17 as a mark of respect to Jules Bianchi too, so double tributes to both lost drivers of the sport”, commented another fan.
Another fan wrote: “Reminds me of French football world cup team jerseys with gold numbers. They of course unlike Gasly have been world champions.”
