I prefer Ricciardo's throwback helmut to his current funny papers version.

That's a pre-WWII Renault logo on Hulkenberg's helmet.

That's going back 80 years ago !!

It's not retro, it's antedeluvian !

 

Interesting Mercedes continues to mess with things (which is expected of course) but haven't really seen discussion / pictures of Ferrari updates the last few races (unless i am just forgetting something). Makes you wonder what they are doing.

 

I suppose it's a polite way for Charles to say to Vettel: "You are on your own mate !"

I was on the reserve at first, but I start to like Leclerc more and more !

 

Actually, it´s the one they used from the late 50s to early 70s. Doesn´t really matter as Renault was´t doing F1 back then anyway.

Fantastic photo-reportage, Joe, as always. A big thank you...

Some Renaults in the 60s, had the diamond with RNUR in the middle.
I remember Learning to drive in a 4L, and my mother had a 4cv. We were in Belgium then.

RNUR stood for Regie Nationale des Usines Renault ( the Renault Works had been nationalised after WWII).

 

I think Red Bull or STR will run the original logos of Mobil one (the one with the horse) on the cars wings .

edit: just saw the pictures being posted above.

 

I see he’s still trying to hide his male pattern baldness

 

Looks like Pedro Rodriguez. Would love to see him pull out a thrilling performance so they'd talk about PR. One of my all time faves.
