Romain Grosjean has revealed the new helmet design it will sport during the 2016 Formula One season, his first with Haas F1 Team.

The Frenchman had been teasing about the new colours all week on his social media. Designed by Adrien Paviot, the revised layout naturally incorporates Haas and other sponsors’ logos while also featuring a #JB17 hashtag on each side to salute the late Jules Bianchi. Grosjean’s permanent #8 racing number can be found at the back.

With the FIA implementing a ban on in-season design tweaks last year, the 10-time podium finisher will have to don the updated colours all year long.
