Esteban Ocon's 2023 Helmet

Alpine F1 team will be launching their 2023 F1 car on 16th February. However, Esteban Ocon couldn’t wait in order to show his fans what he would be wearing for the upcoming season. There have been some changes into the team’s lineup coming into this season. With Fernando Alonso parting ways with the Enstone based squad, Ocon has a new partner to compete with.

Esteban Ocon will be teaming up with Pierre Gasly for the 2023 F1 season. The two teammates surely have an abundance of history together. When a driver sits in a car, it gets tough to actually distinguish him from his teammate as both of the pilots have the same car and the same racing suit. Formula One drivers have the unique opportunity to customise their own helmets with whichever design.

Since 2015, drivers were only allowed to change their helmet design once during the whole season. This was done in order to prevent confusion between the fans over which pilot was racing. However, since the ban has been lifted, fans have gotten to witness some of the most stunning helmets from the drivers. Esteban Ocon has proved just that with his newest helmet.

After finishing fourth in the constructors championship last year, Ocon will be hungry for more this season. The team aims to fight with the top teams in the coming years. However, with a new car and a new lineup, things might get better at the Enstone based squad.
