Verstappen unveils special United States-inspired helmet

Max Verstappen has unveiled the special helmet he will use at the three races due to be held in the United States in 2024.

The world champion is looking set for a fourth straight crown as four wins from the opening five races, with the next stop on the calendar being Miami - where he has won both races held to date.

Verstappen will trade in his usual design for a dark blue base with the US flag around the bottom with further details around the helmet.

He will also use it during the United States Grand Prix at Austin in October and the Las Vegas Grand Prix in November.

Verstappen has won the last six races in the United States, stretching back to the 2021 US Grand Prix becoming the first driver to win three times in a season in a single country in 2023.
