Comment below, what's the Best Helmet, Best Suit & Best Livery...
Best Helmet is...
Best Driver Suit is...
Best Livery is...
Controversially alpine for all of the above
@@TommoOnUA-cam Zhou
Valtteri's testing helmet is golden
No, its valtteri
Quite literally, golden hair
@@TommoOnUA-camhaha true
Hayden deserves royalties considering his veloce helmet design a couple years back
Valterri it's James
Considering his initials and that his team's sponsored by Duracell, Albono missed a trick by not having an AA battery on there! :D
Ocon's helmet is absolutely S tier for me, the helmet is awesome with the black and red.
It just looks like when you design a helmet with the limited tools available on a racing game… No really wow factor, just a bit meh
@@henrrryyyy It's inspired by the Spiderman 3 black suit which is just unreal, he posted a screenshot from the film on his insta story after revealing the helmet
Defo, Sith Lord vibes
Darth Maul
Yes but I think it doesn't go with the car at all. I mean that is something to be considered as well imo.
Am I the only one who thinks Gasly's helmet is sick!
Especially with the AH and JB inputs as tributes to Antoine and Jules ❤️
I didn't notice those bits, nice touches.
Apart from the tributes I think it's sickening. 🤢
Finally someone sees it its a banger
Yeah i dont understand the hate, it looks super cool
@@brtomega1038 That's cause it is!
❤️🔥
Esteban's helmet is epic, sublime.
It's pretty tron-esque
I agree. Although is it just me or would pink make more sense? I know he likes the red but I just feel with the overalls it would look real nice.
I really wish Alpine used the same theme as the french national team's kit for their livery. It would've fit so well with Gasly's helmet.
Allez les bleus
Esteban is absolute S tier on its own for me, but taking it together with Gasly's it is almost like they intentionally went for a good/evil combo. Classic angel Vs devil stuff which I think is hilarious and definitely my headcanon now.
Hey Tommo, the red hearts on Nyck de Vries his helmet are actually called Pompeblêden. It's some kind of leaf. It's a thing from Frisian culture (a region in the Netherlands where he comes from) We also (frisians) have our own language.
I knew that this comment whould show up when tommo said red hearts
Isn’t Frisian very close to old English?
@@SandipanNath123 it is
Your ranking of Zhou's helmet is so different to mine. Both last year and this year, Sainz and Zhou have had the best designs for me.
The Alpha Tauri livery looks dope on track, especially the wheel covers
It's a step up from the renders for sure
I like it now i really didnt in the render
The only real issue is when you get a rare front-on camera angle. Then it just looks disgraceful. Every other angle looks pretty decent, though
@@jamesorrell7462 yea, that front angle is the only reason I couldn't put it above C. It is absolutely hideous
Damn, Tommo went all-in, rating ALL THE THINGS
RANKING 2023 WHEEL COVERS
Williams: Banger
McLaren: Mid
AlphaTauri: Oh God Why
The Williams has actually turned into my favourite after seeing it during testing, when the sun hits it; it looks fantastic.
Piastris and Gaslys helmets ahead of Magnussens is a crime
Can’t believe you don’t like the Haas it looks fantastic
I don't dislike any of the liveries tbh, I'm just fully neutral on it.
Helmet for me is Yuki, Suit is Alfa Romeo, and Livery is a tie between Ferrari, Merc, and Aston Martin I just can't seperate them.
Im surprised how low Hulks Helmet was. It’s easily my favorite helmet
I like how Valtteri's helmet looks like something from Power Rangers. His RoC helmet was a banger as well.
I'm surprised how low the Haas livery is, and Hulk's lid is definitely in contention for my favorite this year.
I always look forward to these videos at the beginning of the season! Will you be doing a video of others rating your redesigns?
Not sure if I can take the ego hit this year 😅
@@TommoOnUA-cam hahahahaaaaa
Am I the only one loves the haas livery, it’s so much like the dale earnheart reference is soo nice
The leaves on Yukis helmet are Japanese Maple (acer palmatum)
The first time I saw Ocon on track I asked myself "Huh, is that Darth Mual" Haha.
Cool helmet
esteban ocon's helmet is so good bro
23:48 I have never been angrier by a tier list before this one
Love these ranking videos bc they make me even more pumped for the season to start ❤️🔥 (also agree with missing Lewis' purple helmet!)
Soooon 🙌
Honestly, if Williams changed the red on the car and overalls to orange I’d put them straight up into S tier
KMag's helmet is at least a B. His iconic large "K" on the side kind of limits what he can do with it.
I agree. This template has become iconic for him
yeah putting that in C is a crime
@@loony_blocks yep
putting zhou's helmet in low B tier is an absolute crime
As I expected the AT looks brilliant on track, the alpine also looks really slick with the flat nose IMO.
tbh piastri's helmet s tier bc the dude has stuck with that color scheme for ages and i gotta respect that commitment
Yeah...I agree with the top 3 liveries.
Kmag's and Hulk's helmets are fire tho imo
Alfa Romeo is absolutely fire in terms of design this season
Those "hearts" on the helmet of Nick de Vries aren't hearts, but "pompeblêdden". Which is Frysian (the second official language of the Netherlands) for water lily leaves. Those pompeblêdden are also on the flag of his province "Friesland". That is why the Dutch say both "De Vries" (his last name) and de Fries (where he is from).
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_of_Friesland
Carlos' helmet would work perfectly for a German driver, would have been the PERFECT helmet for Mick Schumacher as it looks like an homage to Michael's helmet
Perfect for a german driver? its literally the spanish flag
@@henkelarssonvm9471 with the black bits in there it looks more like the German flag from the side
I realy liked Ocons Helmet this year and also Hamiltons Helmet, both are S Tier for me. On the Overalls I think I agree 100% with Tommo what doesn´t happen very often when it comes to Design things . I think we have a very different taste :D
Best suit, Haas cause I’m an Alpinestar fanboy but honestly miss the 2021 Alpine suits,
Best helmets Ocon as it’s a sinister look and reminds me how my friends used to joke how the Simpson helmets were evil and it’s a throwback to the 2020 Renault helmet which is my favorite helmet of all time
I look at a helmet and think to myself "would I wear in on a motorbike" where everyone and anyone can sit there and gawk at it... and frankly the only ones I would absolutely wear (minus branding in a lot of cases) would be Ocon, Norris, Gasly (honestly, you can never be too flashy on a motorbike... it's like you wear camouflage when you are on two wheels) and maybe Sir Lewis. Yuki and LeClerks are also worth a mention but only because I like the leaf pattern and simplicity of LeClerk's.
Carlos Sainz' helmet is soooo beautiful i love Red + Yellow 🔥
Fun fact: Nyck is short for Nicasius not Nicholas. Which is why it is technically pronounced as like neek not nick.
Been waiting for your race suit ranking, most are really nice this yesr
Hulk's lid is my favourite ngl
@TommoOnUA-cam__ got nothing better to do?
alonsos helmet works really well in the car because the lime matches the accents on the car and it looks sooo good
Hulkenberg's helmet looks like a jawbreaker
Video is lookin' cleaaaaan
I also loved how in the Mclaren interview, both microphones had a pink cover. I wonder if they could be dyed or even sharpied to the 'on brand pink'.
For some reason I only thought Tommo had one.
Love the content btw, when judging helmets I think it’s fun but folks gotta remember how unique these helmets are too each driver, so it’s really hard to rank cuz they carry so much meaning too
Vettel’s all white helmet is a throwback in 70s - 90s. So scary behind the wheel especially in a Ferrari.
Would love to see you rating 2023 merch too
I feel like for a fashion brand, Alpha Tauri should definitley make sure their liveries are a really high standard. I, like many others, dont rate it and that isnt a good look for a fashion brand.
Nick de Vries helmet: the red hearts are a representation of the flag of Friesland, they are waterlily leaves.
20:30 on Wikipedia he‘s called Hendrik Johannes Nicasius "Nyck" de Vries
what a name 👑
Blimey
I like the idea of the paint splatter thing going on in hulks lid, I think it just got a bit busy and the execution wasn't quite right
Definitely agree as well that a clearer and simple helmet is just always better
Surprised you weren't as high on ocons, might be a case of the meanness of the helmet not suiting the driver 😅
We need a pit overalls tier list
Babe, wake up. Tommo posted
If those colors from Ocon helmet were in the Alpine's car :@ damn, that could maybe be better than pink and black.
Overall, my tier list would be very similar to yours, Tommo, but I really don't like the stale bucket blue color of Russell's helmet (C), but I do like the ''in your face attitude'' of Piastri's (A tier). Ocon's def A tier. Lance's simple angel wings deserve more recognition I think.
Hey Tommo, just wanted to point out that Logan’s helmet was also designed by MDM Designs, same lad that does George’s, Lando’s, Alex’s, Oscar’s and Checo’s helmets as you mentioned midway into the video
You're right! The painter must have been the one mentioned on the lid
@@TommoOnUA-cam yeah it must be, he always likes to give credits to the painters so it would make sense
@@TommoOnUA-cam Hard to say as Uffe does designs too, he did all the Kimi's lids for example.
Another banger video. I'm excited to see how a LS swapped Williams runs this year
Gotta disagree on Ocon's helmet not being S-Tier and Yuki's being S-Tier.
Also - Stroll's helmet - the little wings on it are just absolutely cool - so I think it should be higher.
Also - Bottas' altenate helmet is the top of S-Tier, by virtue of the Moustache alone.
The Alpine livery would look way better if they really lent into the black like with their overalls.
Normally I more or less agree with you on ratings, but this time I'm on a totally different wavelength on almost everything.
I’m fairness to Hulk’s, the zombie analogy works because he did comes back from the dead to a starting job after three years out other than a few subs.
I wanna see mintons rankings
Based comment
@@PantherRl based reply
HAMilton p1
I just love it the Strolls helmet, simple and combined with the team without forcing XD
Hulk’s helmet is a banger, what you talking about, Tommo!
The Ferrari suit is so nice, love the black indent on the leg matches the car, the shoulders black but red in the middle. Very surprised you don’t think it’s S tier.
Ocon’s helmet is awesome, and reminds me a bit of Gilles Villeneuve’s old helmet in both colour scheme and design
Tsunoda's helmet is an amazing design, the acer leaves just make it standout but it's less noticable on track. S tier
Tommo the goat for ranking everything
Tommo proving he's a man of taste once again
Favourite helmet: Sainz, Ocon, Piastri, Alonso
Favourite suit: Alpine, Haas
Favourite livery: Williams
Liveries tier-list
[S]
- Williams (quite appreciated last year's already, love this year's even more)
- Mercedes
[A]
Haas (possibly my favourite Haas livery so far)
- Alpine [pink]
- McLaren
[B]
- Alpine
- Ferrari (this one has grown on me since i first saw it)
[C]
- Alpha Tauri
- Red Bull (I never vibed with the modern RB livery)
- Aston Martin
[D]
- Sauber (where did the C29-C32 era go. Those were some bangin looking liveries)
Now to make a tier list of these tier lists
Ocon's helmet is the best. So clean and slick.
Putting Valtteri’s testing helmet in anything but S tier is a crime
I feel like I’m just about the only one actually likes the Haas livery. It gives me Andretti Indy car vibes from 90’s.
Moneygram haas us my favourite livery
Looking forward to the 2024 version of this
Also thinking Tommo maybe do a redo of the 2023 tier list with all the 'special' helmets and liveries included?
Nyck's red hearts refer to his province of birth, Friesland.
You also could do a list on how the helmets work with the livery and teammate , I like Ocon's helmet as a stand alone and in contrast with Gasly but not with his suit and the livery (but it would look nice in the Mercedes). The Williams helmets however look good with the car and suit but there's hardly any contrast between the two.
Actually, the hearts on Nyck de Vries are 'Pompeblêden'. They are on the Frysian flag. A flag of the Dutch province Fryslan, where Nyck comes from.
i think a d and f tier could've been used but other than that mostly agree just would've spread it more out with that extra tier or two
My differing opinions are: im not a fan of the mercedes after seeing it on track. the black paint along the carbon makes the car look cheap. It is just so jarring with the straigh line cutting off the carbon from the black paint. The ferrari i would put at S, I think i prefer to last years and after seeing it under the sun the new shade of red makes it looks so nice. Additionally, I actually really like that black carbon box poking out. I feel it really grabs viewers attention when you see the ferrari go around the track. Finally, as a mclaren fan I just hate the direction the liverly has been going. Just feels like skittles thrown up on the car this year and last year.
One interesting bit I noticed for Albons Helmet is it’s missing it’s Red Bull branding. Makes one wonder if there are still any ties there, eh?
22:51 *pink accents, I saw a video of mad56 (the painter) where the helmet is pink underneath and painted navy blue on top
Red Bull did a good job moving that yellow even slightly off the nose
Please do a pit crew overalls tier list, just because of the Gulf overalls!
When you see the Squarespace sponsor starts the video. You know it's going to be an absolute cracker of a video. Wonderful stuff. 🤝
A sign of premium quality
I miss Danny ric helmet...also like the Castrol on alpine helmets
Definitely agree with Logan helmet design fella 👍
For me Esteban's helmet is straight S tier
Those Hearths on Nyck’s helmet is the flag of the region in The Netherlands where he is from - Frysland
Albon doesn’t have red bull on his helmet anymore? Yes king.
The red hearts on nyck his helmet resemble the fact that he comes from a province in the north of the netherlands called friesland, the flag has all these hearts!
I LOVE Hulks lid design but I do agree with the rest of the list list tbh
Hulkenberg's helmet design is based on a Jackson Pollock painting. 🤣🤣 Though to be fair, that was the correct reaction, because if you say, "It's a bit of a Jackson Pollock", It's like saying, "It's a bit of a mess", so you weren't wrong! 😅
I love that you love Alex as much as I do.
I won't put an actual order inside the tiers. Mentioning an S tier before the other one will only depend on where they are on Tommo's tier list or if I decide to change their tiers afterwards
Let's go with liveries first
S: Aston Martin, Alpink
A: Red Bull, Williams, Haas
B: Ferrari, Mercedes, Alphatauri
C: Alfa Romeo, McLaren, Alpine
Suits (I guess with a bit of commentary):
S: Haas (the balance is amazing and I love that almost black shade of grey), Mercedes (that full black uniform is really sharp)
A: Williams (I don't like the fact that the red line under the armpits stops, otherwise it's amazing), McLaren (I don't mind the black boxes around the sponsors, but agree that it would be better without them), Aston Martin (when going with suits, simple is usually best. My only issue is that it feels like a different green from the car's)
B: Alpine (both colours work well, both colours work together, both colours work with black, both colours don't work when they're together and with black. Shoulder pads being a different blue than the BWT in the center also sucks), Ferrari (needs more red), Alphatauri (see Ferrari. Either that or needs no red, but since Orlen is their main sponsor they can't do less)
C: Alfa Romeo (that dark a red doesn't go with black, needs some separation), Red Bull (needs less red)
Helmets (this one will go in same order as Tommo's) (won't elaborate since I want to watch the rest of the video)
S: Verstappen, Tsunoda, Sainz, Leclerc, Bottas preseason, Albon
A: Zhou, Sargeant, Russell (somehow this livery makes Mercedes' livery even worse), Perez, Ocon, Norris, Bottas
B: Stroll, Magnussen, Hamilton, Gasly, Alonso
C: Piastri, Hulkenberg, De Vries
My full suit of the season (let's call it like that) (they won't work well together but whatever)
Livery: Aston Martin. I love the pink Alpine livery but I fear it might have to do with the complete darkness that is the rest of the colour palletes. Aston Martin's reflective green is nothing short of mouth watering
Race suit: Mercedes. What can I say. I fell in love with that simple solid colour at first sight I can't steer away from it
Driver helmet #1: Esteban Ocon. I know it's not S-tier, but that's because going for red instead of the pink or either of the blues completes the circle of being a colouful mess on top of the black, but the helmet itself is absolute fire
Driver helmet #2: Max Verstappen. The lion design is beautiful and the way the orange, the white and the blue work here is flawless.
Most suckass look this season, nominees:
-Valtteri Bottas and Zhou Guanyu:
Alfa Romeo this year is the ugliest I've seen in years, but the fault doesn't lie on either of them and they're both a couple details away from having S-tier helmets (in fact Bottas is using one in preseason), so I've got to give them a pass
-Pierre Gasly and Esteban Ocon:
I would have liked my Alpine boys to sport more bleu on their helmets, but we got what we got. The suits and the car sucks as well but the helmets standing alone are fine. Maybe exchanging white and gold and turning down the brightness a bit on Gasly's would help his case a bit, but it's just fine as it is. Plus, they will be driving those outstanding pink liveries in the first lap around the middle east
-Oscar Piastri:
My lord that is an ugly helmet. That colour combination actually hurts my eyes. I've got something with this and last year's McLaren's. I don't like the carbon fibre on that car, and apart from that, I don't like the combination between orange/papaya and that shade of blue
Those are all unhonorable mentions though. Our winner is:
NYCK DE VRIES
Livery is ok-ish but it could be worse. The suit could be nice going a step either side but it stayed in the middle and it sucks. The helmet feels like they had a deadline and couldn't think of anything until the last minute and hurried the lines that ended up poorly. The only thing saving Piastri is the really nice McLaren suit though
Best helmet prize to the pink Valtteri Bottache helmet he wore today
Stroll's is amazing imo
20:35 Nyck is short for 'Nicasius'
Love your vids mate 👍
Cheers Ben!
