With a flurry of 2018 Formula 1 cars slowly being revealed, it"s only now that we are starting to see how the halo safety device will affect the cars" looks, and possibly our enjoyment. As I watched the Red Bull go around Silverstone, I noticed how very little I could see of the driver and subsequently the driver"s helmet and colours. Which is a shame, and ironic that so many drivers are releasing new designs only for them to be hidden. Growing up with the sport, I used to love recognising a driver"s colours and, being from the Top Gear art department, I"m still a big fan of helmet designs (if they are done well).
