Max Verstappen will drive again with a special yellow helmet during the Styrian Grand Prix. This is not the first time Verstappen has done this, because his two victories in Austria were also achieved with a yellow helmet in honour of his sponsor Jumbo. The chain shop has been a loyal supporter of Verstappen for years, and the Dutchman is only too happy about that.

''He turned yellow, a big surprise'', jokes Verstappen in the video. ''Generally a bit fresher design. Just a bit nicer, with some more blue in it and also the circuit is in it with the names of the corners. A successful helmet, hopefully it will bring some luck for this weekend'', said the Dutchman.
