    Not sure if other Iceman fans experienced difficulties in sourcing his official cap, but I sure did...after 3 months I finally found an official team gear Kimi Lotus cap.

    I don't know why it's so difficult to get legitimate F1 gear here in the US, it took me 2 months to find a real Alonso 2012 flat-bill cap too.

    But here it is, just wanted to share my joy! It happened to arrive at the same time as my GoPro Hero2 sound mod...hopefully, now I can capture some decent engine symphonies from the scud & mp4. The stock sound quality is just utter crap.

    Love the Kimster!

    Nice looking lid, but I am old school and the flat brims just don't do it for me - although it does look hilarious when Kimi wears one with his tiny melon!!! :D

    I got it from a memorabilia stand during the Monaco GP earlier this year...seems like it's easier to get a hold of these things from that side of the pond.

    lotusoriginals.com would have it, but they've not re-stocked since forever so if the source doesn't even have it in stock I wonder how/where everyone else is getting their supply!
