Ricciardo unveils new 'All Good All Ways' 2021 helmet

Daniel Ricciardo unveiled on Sunday his new 2021 helmet design that conveys to the world an optimistic message in these troubled times: 'All Good All Ways'.

The striking lid is the creative brainchild of Ricciardo's now go to artist, Ornamental Conifer, and features a palette of blue tones with a touch of orange that should blend nicely with the Aussie's papaya McLaren.

"2021 helmet – this is it," Ricciardo said. "It’s another Ornamental Conifer design. I’m stoked with it. The theme of it this year was ‘All Good, All Ways.

"Two-fold really: it’s always going to be alright, the sun will always shine, you may have your ups and downs but it’s just trying to be positive with anything you do.

"The second part is no matter where you come from, what walk of life, race, religion, whichever… All Good, All Ways, everyone is cool.

"We’re accepting. Everybody loves everybody. I’m stoked with it, this is what I’m running with this year, hope you like it.

The Aussie unveiled his helmet a day before McLaren pulls the covers off its 2021 car, the MCL35M whose presentation on Monday evening at Woking will kick off Formula 1's series of team launches.

Phillip van Osten

Motor racing was a backdrop from the outset in Phillip van Osten's life. Born in Southern California, Phillip grew up with the sights and sounds of fast cars thanks to his father, Dick van Osten, an editor and writer for Auto Speed and Sport and Motor Trend. Phillip's passion for racing grew even more when his family moved to Europe and he became acquainted with the extraordinary world of Grand Prix racing. He was an early contributor to the monthly French F1i Magazine, often providing a historic or business perspective on Formula 1's affairs. In 2012, he co-authored along with fellow journalist Pierre Van Vliet the English-language adaptation of a limited edition book devoted to the great Belgian driver Jacky Ickx. He also authored "The American Legacy in Formula 1", a book which recounts the trials and tribulations of American drivers in Grand Prix racing. Phillip is also a commentator for Belgian broadcaster Be.TV for the US Indycar series.
