Photo: Gasly and Ocon’s special helmets for the French GP!
Estéban Ocon and Pierre Gasly unveiled their special helmets last night for the Grand Prix de France. The Frenchmen did not opt for the blue, white, and red colors.
On the occasion of the French Grand Prix, Pierre Gasly and Estéban Ocon decided to change the design of their helmets for this weekend at Le Castellet. The two drivers unveiled them last night on social media.
For Alpine’s driver – whose contract has just been extended until 2024 by the French team – the colors of France appear on his helmet. In addition, a tricolor stripe runs across the top and back of it. The Normandy-born driver has also added a golden Eiffel Tower on the top of the helmet.

On his side, Pierre Gasly took advantage of this race to give even more importance to the French flag on his helmet. The 3rd of the Azerbaijan Grand Prix also added several reminders of his race number (10), as well as his personal logo in the special French GP design.

Also at the party, the Alpine team made some aesthetic modifications to its front wing. The A521 will display the colors of the French flag throughout the weekend.
