As racers gear up for Sunday's Monaco Grand Prix, a host of drivers unveiled their elaborately decorated helmets for the world-class race on the Monte Carlo track.
World champion Sebastian Vettel features a bikini-clad blond on the back of his bucket and pays homage to Stirling Moss's 1961 victory on the front. Lewis Hamilton's ornate lid features his girlfriend Nicole Scherzinger and pet dog Roscoe.
Writing in his column for the BBC, Hamilton, who is among the favorites this weekend, added, "I like to do something special with my helmet design for Monaco. It has got me, Nicole and my dog Roscoe cruising in an old convertible.
"A guy called Jason at JLF Designs has been doing my designs since I was in karts. We come up with lots of different concepts. This year I took an idea from the guy who did one of my tattoos."
Fernando Alonso has his 32 grand prix victories entwined in a jigsaw design. You can bet he's looking for another piece to the puzzle.
