Esteban Ocon and Pierre Gasly get special helmets for Belgium
At the Belgian Grand Prix, the Alpine Formula 1 team is adopting a Marvel theme, with colors and helmets inspired by Deadpool and Wolverine. Esteban Ocon and Pierre Gasly will be wearing special helmets in tribute to these characters.
This weekend, the Formula 1 Alpine team is adopting a Marvel theme in the garage. This change is largely thanks to one of its investors, Ryan Reynolds, famous for his role as Deadpool in the cinema. For the occasion, the Alpine car will sport red and black colors inspired by Deadpool, with yellow scratches reminiscent of Wolverine’s claws.
The drivers, as well as the whole team, will also wear red suits for the occasion. In tribute to this theme inspired by Deadpool and Wolverine, drivers Esteban Ocon and Pierre Gasly will follow suit by sporting special helmets at Spa.
Esteban Ocon has already unveiled his helmet, which pays tribute to Ryan Reynolds and the Deadpool movie. A big fan of Marvel, he seemed very excited about this collaboration.
