Helmet:
Sebastian Vettel is using the Canadian Grand Prix weekend to draw awareness to what he calls the country’s “climate crime” by wearing a special helmet for the Formula 1 round.
The four-time world champion has also been arriving at the track each wearing a T-shirt bearing the message “Stop mining tar sands – Canada’s climate crime.”
The message is a reference to the controversial oil sands operation in Alberta, which has been described as the world’s biggest industrial project.
Mini Helmet:
It involves bitumen being dug from huge open pits on land that used to contain forests.
In addition to the T-shirt Vettel’s helmet painter Jens Munser has created a design showing an oil pipeline.
Vettel has tackled local issues at several races this year, including the threat of sea level change at the Miami GP.
1/2 Helmet:
Yes. We have no limits when it comes to making custom helmets, including vintage designs of F1 helmets at no extra cost. Please, feel free to contact us.
Sebastian owns well over 100 helmets with a brightly painted shell, but for the 2018 Austin, Texas race part of the design has been moved to the inner part of his Arai helmet.
Asked by Autosport if he chose his causes through his own investigations or was now being approached by people asking for help he insisted that the former was still the case.
Family:
Sebastian Vettel is a four-time world champion, and he took the Formula 1 world by storm when he became the youngest ever race winner, and to this day he remains the youngest ever Formula 1 world champion with Red Bull Racing.
However, Vettel did not come from a family with a lot of wealth.
Vettel married childhood friend Hanna Prater at a private ceremony in early 2019, and they have three children.
Born: July 3, 1987 (age 35 years), Heppenheim, Germany
