Jacques Villeneuve
The story
A multicoloured helmet with a yellow base, a blue upper section and pink, green and red lines, based on his father Gilles' design and drawn by Villeneuve himself on a doodling pad with his mother's pencils, the lines forming an inverted V on each side; he said he never changed the design because it represents the driver's spirit; unchanged on his move to the new BAR team.
