Lewis Hamilton has unveiled his Brazilian Grand Prix helmet design which features a tribute to Ayrton Senna.

Hamilton matched Senna's record of three world titles last month with victory in the United States Grand Prix, while he now has more wins than the legendary Brazilian. Ahead of this weekend's race at Interlagos - a grand prix which Hamilton has yet to win - the Mercedes driver took to Twitter to display a new helmet design.

Accompanied with the message "Just for you, Brazil!! A tribute to the greatest", Hamilton's helmet features the iconic yellow with blue and green stripes worn by Senna.
