For Esteban Ocon, the Hungarian Grand Prix is a special weekend for one big reason: it was the Grand Prix of his maiden win in Formula 1. In 2021, the Frenchman moved from P8 to P1 to stand on the top step of the podium and give Alpine their first win since changing their name from Renault.

Ocon led the race after Lewis Hamilton was the only driver to start on the intermediate tyres after a red flag stopped the race, and the Alpine driver held on for his most memorable race ever. This weekend, to celebrate his only-ever win in F1, Ocon will race with a special helmet. The helmet is designed in the same way as the beautiful Hungarian Grand Prix trophy and is coloured the same as the Hungarian flag, with red, green and white. You can see the design down below:
